About Dwight

Dr. Dwight Eisenman is a licensed professional counselor with more than 12 years of clinical experience. He holds LPC and Licensed Mental Health Counselor credentials and practices from Kansas.

He focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship problems, grief, and changes in life. He aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion as they consider making changes. He adapts conversations and plans to fit a person’s situation.

Background and approach

That means clear, practical steps and a straightforward way of talking. Sessions are intended to feel collaborative, not rushed, so people can describe what matters to them and try approaches that may help. His training includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Client-Centered Therapy.

He uses those methods to address mood challenges, coping strategies, addictive behaviors, and relationship patterns. Treatment is tailored rather than one-size-fits-all. Dwight emphasizes building skills for day-to-day life like managing stress, improving communication, coping with loss, and handling career or identity-related pressures.

He also offers coaching-style support for people who want clearer goals and practical plans. Conversations are conducted in English and are available through a range of online formats. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling that fits the client’s needs.

He does not accept international clients.

Using proven approaches in online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and commit to actions that reflect those values. It supports managing painful thoughts and feelings so those things have less control over daily choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying new behaviors that reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. It is practical and skill-based, with tools to use between sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the client’s priorities shape the work and progress moves at their pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss options and recommend methods based on a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration helps shape a plan that feels useful and realistic rather than fixed from the start.

Online therapy can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit daily life. These formats allow work to continue even when travel or timing is difficult and they make it easier to keep momentum between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and tools for each format so people can practice skills in the settings where they live and work.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
