Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Wais commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy as core approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress-related symptoms. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on understanding and processing the impact of traumatic experiences, helping people reduce trauma-related distress and rebuild a sense of safety and control. He also incorporates Motivational Interviewing to explore ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change, which can be especially useful for clients feeling stuck or unmotivated.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Wais collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative stance means therapy can evolve as priorities shift and new insights emerge.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make attending sessions easier for people managing work, caregiving, or geographic constraints, and allow ongoing therapeutic work to continue in a format that suits each individual.
