Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Wayne Castro

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites clients to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions that reflect personal values - a useful approach for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses, often helping with stress, low mood, and concentration difficulties. The Gottman Method offers structured tools for improving communication and resolving conflict in relationships, supporting couples who want to strengthen connection and manage recurring problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Wayne Castro works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and adapts strategies as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy aligns with the client’s life and values.

Online therapy provides flexibility by offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to continue care from different locations. Licensed professionals can deliver many evidence-informed interventions effectively through these formats, and Wayne uses them to increase access and convenience for clients seeking consistent support.
