About Robert
Robert Wubbenhorst is a Vermont Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life changes. He draws on 15 years of practice to help people find ways forward when they feel stuck, empty, or disconnected. Robert focuses on practical steps that reduce day-to-day struggle.
Sessions emphasize noticing unhelpful patterns, trying small changes, and building skills that fit each person's life. He aims to help clients feel more hopeful about the future while working through difficult memories and responses.
Background and approach
His background includes work in community mental health, higher education, and independent practice. That mix has shaped a flexible approach to individual and group support. He has also worked with first responders and people who have experienced severe mental health challenges in day treatment settings.
Robert uses a blend of client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and hypnotherapy to match what each person needs. He also brings experience in supervision and counselor education, which informs his reflective, learning-focused style. In sessions he prioritizes clear communication and practical tools.
He encourages honest feedback about what is or isn’t helping and adjusts plans accordingly. People who are ready to try different strategies to ease anxiety and regain momentum may find his style helpful.
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Robert frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy to help people manage anxiety and stress. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage intense feelings and improve sleep.He also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening closely and shaping sessions around each person's goals. Finding the right approach is treated as a team effort - the therapist and client review what helps, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on progress and preference.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people have deeper face-to-face conversations when bandwidth allows. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or work better when video is not possible. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or tracking progress between sessions. Together these options make it easier to keep consistent momentum while trying new coping strategies.
