About Herman

Herman Bunn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience helping people through hard seasons. He has spent decades meeting clients when life feels heavy or confusing. Herman focuses on listening closely and creating a steady, respectful presence during difficult conversations.

He keeps sessions simple and practical. Herman helps people notice patterns that once protected them but now hold them back. He works with mood concerns like depression and bipolar issues, anxiety and stress, trauma and grief, and problems with sleep and self‑esteem.

Background and approach

He also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues and offers guidance around parenting and career changes. Herman uses a mix of approaches based on what the person needs. He draws from attachment-focused work to look at connection and trust, from cognitive behavioral strategies to change thoughts and habits, and from mindfulness to help people stay present.

Sessions tend to be collaborative and paced to match each person’s comfort level. Culturally responsive care matters in his practice. Herman aims to respect each person’s background and life story while paying attention to how systems and identity affect well‑being.

He helps people who are coping with major life changes, chronic illness, caregiving stress, or compassion fatigue. People meet him when relationships feel strained, when grief is raw, or when anxiety and stress make daily life harder. Herman focuses on practical steps and steady support so people can breathe easier and find clearer direction.

Approaches for connection and change in online sessions

Herman commonly uses attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral therapy in sessions. Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships and trust affect feelings and behavior and can help people understand patterns in close relationships. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical steps to change unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety or depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Herman will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences and will adjust methods over time. That collaborative process helps match techniques to what actually helps someone feel better and function more comfortably.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats allow for flexible scheduling and let people work on concerns from home or other convenient locations. The variety of ways to connect makes it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy or stressful periods and supports steady progress toward specific goals.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
