About Mylane

Mylane Wigley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Alabama with three decades of experience in mental health care.

Background and approach

She draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered methods to address a wide spectrum of concerns.

Her background includes work across diverse settings, where she has supported people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, relationship and family challenges, parenting difficulties, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, and life transitions. Wigley emphasizes a collaborative, skills-oriented style that helps clients identify patterns, build practical coping strategies, and recover momentum after setbacks.

She prioritizes an open, honest therapeutic relationship and aims to teach tools that remain useful beyond immediate issues. Sessions often focus on developing emotional awareness, communication skills, and problem-solving techniques tailored to each person’s goals and circumstances.

How therapy approaches adapt to online care

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and replacing them with more effective strategies; it is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and behavior-focused goals. ACT encourages acceptance of difficult emotions while clarifying personal values and committed action, which can help people facing life changes and chronic emotional pain. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, nonjudgmental listening, and collaboration to build a strong therapeutic relationship and support self-directed growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will collaborate with each person to determine which combination of methods best matches goals, preferences, and current needs. That collaborative exploration helps tailor interventions and adjust techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing work to continue regardless of location or schedule constraints. These formats make it easier to access consistent care, practice skills between sessions, and maintain contact when life is busy or circumstances change.
