About Robert
Robert Wubbenhorst is a Vermont Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who helps people manage anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and relationship and intimacy concerns.

Robert writes plainly and focuses on practical steps to reduce distress and rebuild daily routines.
He keeps sessions centered on the person in front of him.
How Robert works
Conversations are paced to match what the client needs. Robert uses straightforward techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and to build new habits that feel doable. Robert blends several approaches to tailor care.
He commonly uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect, cognitive behavioral tools to address thinking patterns, and mindfulness skills to lower reactivity. He also uses elements of dialectical behavior strategies and hypnotherapy where appropriate. In practice he helps people notice the patterns that keep them stuck and then practices different ways to respond.
Sessions can include skills training, guided exercises, and planning for the week ahead. He explains techniques in everyday language so people can try them between meetings. Robert’s background includes work across community mental health, higher education, and independent practice.
That experience informs his focus on coping skills, compassion fatigue, first responder issues, blended family dynamics, and chronic illness concerns. He aims to help people build hope, make concrete changes, and move toward a steadier day-to-day life.

How therapy approaches translate online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client's lead to help people feel heard and make changes at their own pace. It is useful for building trust and working through feelings like emptiness or low self esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and communication. It can be helpful for anger, impulsivity, relationship strain, and mood instability.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked so the plan evolves with the client's situation.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging makes brief between-session contact easier. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into work, family, and other commitments while still working with a licensed professional.
