About Bobbi
Bobbi Warner Somers is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in Vermont with 15 years of clinical experience. She brings a calm, practical approach to sessions and focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Bobbi writes and speaks plainly so people leave sessions with clear next steps.
She uses a client-centered stance that starts with listening. From there she draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to challenge unhelpful thinking and on solution-focused tools to set small, reachable goals.
How Bobbi works
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is ready to change substance use or other behaviors but feels stuck. Bobbi aims to build a steady, respectful working relationship. Sessions often include setting a simple goal, practicing a coping skill, and checking how it felt during the week.
She prefers techniques that fit into daily life rather than abstract exercises. Her background includes work across mental health and substance use settings, with experience addressing parenting stress, codependency, communication problems, and midlife transitions. That practical experience informs how she helps people plan next steps and manage setbacks.
People who come to Bobbi can expect straightforward guidance, paced change, and real tools for coping with life shifts. She prioritizes collaboration and helps each person choose what feels most useful in their situation.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them find their own solutions; this approach is useful for building trust and clarity around personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches specific skills to test unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try methods that match those needs. Sessions can shift as progress is made and new priorities emerge.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video lets conversations feel more like in-person meetings, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging suits ongoing reflection between appointments. This range makes it easier to keep therapy going during busy weeks, travel, or when schedules change.
