About Wanetta

Dr. Wanetta "Nita" Hughes Bise is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with 17 years of experience. She greets new clients with warmth and a focus on respectful, compassionate care.

Nita aims to build a working relationship where people feel heard and supported as they make changes in their lives. She works with adults on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, depression, addictions, self-esteem, anger, career questions, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

Her additional focus areas include abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, family of origin problems, and first responder issues. Nita offers care for people navigating guilt, forgiveness, emptiness, or questions about life purpose and midlife transitions. Nita uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person.

Her work draws from Attachment-Based Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). In sessions she emphasizes collaboration, clear goals, and practical skills that can be used between meetings. Session length and scheduling are handled per client request and availability, with many clients meeting weekly.

She notes that some sessions run 45 minutes and that Friday and some Saturday times are offered. Nita expects clients to give notice for cancellations when possible to allow others to use the time. People who choose her can expect a steady, compassionate guide as they work toward clearer communication, stronger relationships, and better coping with life’s changes.

Online support

How her approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional safety. Online work can help people notice patterns in connection and try new ways of relating during sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical steps for noticing painful thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values, which can help with depression, anxiety, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy centers on empathic listening and respect, giving people space to talk through hard choices and feel understood.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. They may try one approach first and adapt it over time so the plan fits the person's needs.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and practice new communication skills. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text are useful for short check-ins, tracking homework, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people keep continuity of care and fit sessions into busy lives.
