About Wayne
Wayne Castro is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in New Hampshire with decades of practice. He centers therapy on practical tools and steady support to help people manage stress, anxiety, and mood concerns. Wayne speaks plainly and focuses on small, doable steps people can use between sessions.
He draws on well-known approaches such as the Gottman Method, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). These approaches guide how he helps people cope with trauma, depression, attention challenges, and relationship or intimacy concerns.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused to match what each person needs. Wayne has 45 years of experience working across a wide range of struggles. He helps people dealing with grief, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, and life transitions.
He also supports those facing addiction, domestic violence aftermath, family of origin issues, and complications from military or first responder service. In the room he aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be named and examined. He encourages clients to practice new skills between sessions so progress carries into daily life.
The tone is direct but compassionate, with an emphasis on practical behavior change. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Wayne uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling is handled through an initial matching and booking process.

Online support
Approaches and how online therapy supports them
Gottman Method work focuses on communication patterns, emotional connection, and managing conflict in close relationships. It helps people recognize interaction habits and practice healthier ways of relating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills to notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them and to act toward chosen values despite difficulty. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which tools fit their goals and preferences. That means adjusting methods over time and combining elements from different approaches when useful.
Online formats make regular work easier to maintain. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when interaction and nonverbal cues matter. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates, practice skills, or check in between sessions. These options offer flexibility for varied schedules, quieter surroundings, and different communication needs while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
