About Robert
Robert Wubbenhorst is a Vermont LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor) with 15 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship concerns, addictions, grief, self-esteem, and coaching. He also works with blended family issues and related life changes.
He uses straightforward conversation and practical skills in sessions. He draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, hypnotherapy, and mindfulness practices to help people change patterns that keep repeating. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful habits and try small changes that make daily life easier.
Robert’s background includes work in community mental health, higher education, and private practice. That experience shaped a pragmatic approach to coping, crisis response, and making routines more manageable. He has worked with a range of people, including first responders and those facing serious mental health challenges.
In a first session he listens to current concerns and priorities, then suggests approaches to try. Therapy can include skill practice, thought-restructuring exercises, mindfulness techniques, and guided relaxation. Hypnotherapy may be used when appropriate and agreed upon.
He aims to help people move past stuck patterns so they can feel more in control of daily life. If someone is unsure whether this style fits, the recommendation is to try an initial session and see how it goes.
Approaches used in online sessions
Client-centered work focuses on listening and following the person's concerns. It’s about identifying what matters most and shaping sessions around that, which helps with stress, relationship strain, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches ways to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many day-to-day struggles by practicing small experiments and thought reframing.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Short skills practice and behavioral strategies are often part of this approach.
Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try approaches for a few sessions, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and therapist work together to choose practical techniques that fit the person's life and priorities.
