About Charles
He draws on many therapy models to match the approach to each person’s needs. Sessions often include practicing communication skills, role-play, and short assignments to work on between meetings. Homework is presented as an important part of progress so new ways of relating can take hold outside the session.
With 36 years of experience that include military service and federal employment, he has worked with both civilian and military lifestyles. That background informs his understanding of duty, transition, and the strains those roles can place on daily life and relationships.
He encourages looking at immediate family relationships and the larger social setting as resources for solving problems. Therapy begins with an assessment and moves toward approaches that seem most likely to help reach the client’s goals. The work is practical and goal-focused, with the therapist guiding the selection of tools and interventions.
Dr. Tullis holds professional clinical credentials as LMFT and LCMFT and works from Kansas. He aims to help people increase self-worth, repair communication, and find clearer direction in life. If someone wants support through a hard season or is ready to change course, he offers collaborative care to pursue those aims.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape reactions and closeness. Online work with this approach looks at how patterns in relationships show up now and supports building new ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client's experience, listening carefully and following what matters most to the person; online sessions using this attitude aim to create a respectful, listening space to talk through concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and tests small experiments to change them, which can be practiced between sessions and tracked remotely.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying approaches, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming a single route from the start.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and support homework and skill practice between sessions. These practical benefits help people keep therapy connected to everyday life while working toward clearer communication, better emotion management, and more satisfying relationships.
