Background and approach
Dr. Wisser uses approaches that help people change unhelpful thinking and build values-based action. He draws on techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on values and committed action.
In sessions he teaches coping skills, communication strategies, and ways to manage intense emotions like anger or high stress. He also offers coaching-style help for workplace issues and finding life purpose. The work often mixes short-term skill building with longer conversations about goals.
People who come to him often want practical tools and clear next steps. He works with each person to create a plan that fits their daily life and priorities. If someone prefers direct guidance with room for reflection, his style is a close match.
Online approaches that support action and clarity
Dr. Wisser uses practical methods that translate well to online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and then practicing changes that improve daily functioning. This approach is useful for anxiety, workplace stress, and low mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to tolerate difficult feelings. ACT often helps with life transitions, purpose, and chronic stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your preferences, and adjust as you go. Clients often combine elements of CBT and ACT so the work matches their needs and pace.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you work face-to-face from different locations, phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier during short breaks, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to use new skills in real situations and keep momentum between appointments.
