Dr. Charles Tullis, Jr.

Dr. Charles Tullis, Jr. is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) who brings 36 years of experience to his work. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression, parenting challenges, and coping with life changes.

He uses an integrated, people-oriented approach that connects practical skills to each person’s daily life. In sessions he often teaches communication skills, models healthier interactions, and uses structured exercises such as role-play and between-session assignments. Homework is part of his process to help apply what is learned in therapy to real situations.

Dr. Tullis draws on several methods to match what a client needs, including attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, and the Gottman Method for relationship issues. He combines these with motivational interviewing and narrative techniques when useful. Goals are set together with the client so the work stays focused on what matters most.

He has spent decades working in military and civilian settings and says that family relationships and social context are important resources for change. Sessions aim to identify long-standing patterns and shift them so people can move toward a more satisfying life. The focus is practical problem solving and clearer communication.

Dr. Tullis practices in Kansas and offers services in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session format options before booking and follow the site’s Start Therapy steps to begin.

How his therapeutic approaches translate to online work

The attachment-based approach focuses on patterns in close relationships and how those patterns shape feelings and actions; it helps when trust, closeness, or repeated relational reactions are getting in the way. Client-centered therapy centers the person's own experience and values, offering listening and reflection to help people find their own path forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and uses clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs and then suggest methods that fit. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to keep the focus on what helps most.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can make it simpler to keep regular check-ins and to practice communication skills between sessions. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm which formats are available before booking so you can choose what fits your routine.
