About Wayne
Wayne Castro is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in New Hampshire with 45 years of professional experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, attention and focus concerns often described as ADHD, and a broad set of relationship and life-change topics. Sessions are offered in English and aimed at clear, practical help.
Wayne focuses on straightforward conversation about what is happening now and what a client wants to change. He uses methods that help people notice their thoughts, test unhelpful patterns, and try different behaviors to see what works. He describes his role as a steady guide during those steps, not as someone who tells people what to do.
Clients can expect direct talk about symptoms like worry, low mood, difficulty concentrating, or trouble with intimacy. Wayne also addresses areas such as grief, anger, career strain, and blended family issues when individuals bring those concerns. He frames problems in everyday language and breaks issues into manageable tasks.
Over decades of work he has helped people with complicated histories, including trauma, addiction, and divorce or separation related stress. He combines practical CBT-style techniques with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas and interpersonal methods from the Gottman approach to relationships when relevant to a client’s goals.
Booking starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than avoid discomfort. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms. CBT is commonly used for worry, low mood, and attention-related struggles. The Gottman Method offers practical communication and interaction ideas to address relationship problems and improve how partners talk and manage conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Wayne collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He will suggest ideas, try small experiments, and adjust techniques based on what helps most in real life.
The therapist's biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also allows sessions that do not require being on camera when feeling drained, or that use video when visual cues help progress. Ask about the available formats when you complete the initial matching questionnaire.
