About James

Dr. James Vincent Wisser brings 20 years of clinical experience as an Ohio-licensed psychologist (OH Psychologist P.6023), working with adults facing a range of personal and professional challenges.

Background and approach

He concentrates on stress and anxiety, parenting concerns, workplace dynamics, and transitions that prompt reevaluation of life purpose. His practice also addresses ADHD-related issues, impulsivity, intimacy-related struggles, anger, self-esteem, and communication breakdowns.

Wisser uses a collaborative, compassionate stance to help clients develop practical coping strategies and make measurable progress toward their goals. He draws on evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to offer structured tools and values-based approaches.

Dr. Wisser frames therapeutic work as a partnership focused on clarity, forward movement, and real-world strategies tailored to each person’s needs.

How CBT and ACT Guide Online Work



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new, practical behaviors. It emphasizes step-by-step strategies to reduce symptoms like anxiety, improve coping with stress, and address workplace or relationship difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clarity about personal values and learning to make space for difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action. ACT can help with life transitions, purpose exploration, and managing impulsivity or ADHD-related challenges.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to combine structured techniques and values-based work based on the person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will track what helps and adjust strategies over time to improve fit and effectiveness.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to access licensed professionals from wherever they are in Ohio. These options support scheduling around work and family responsibilities and make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes.
