About Rob
Rob uses straightforward, practical talk therapy. He blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral tools, attachment work, and existential ideas when they fit a person's situation. He also draws on experience with 12-step approaches and pastoral counseling when faith is an important part of a person's life.
He has extensive background supporting parents and caregivers. That includes guidance for parents of children with emotional and behavioral issues and coaching for foster and adoptive families. He has helped people navigate abandonment, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, and caregiving stress.
Rob has long experience with substance use concerns, and he has worked with co-occurring conditions and medication-assisted treatments. He has also provided support and training for people who care for those with intellectual or physical disabilities.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps people can try between meetings. Rob aims to identify what matters most to each person and to build small, realistic changes that add up over time.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Rob often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) online, which focuses on helping people notice their thoughts, clarify values, and take small committed actions toward what matters. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and ongoing stress. He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and to practice safer, more reliable ways of relating to others. Attachment work can help with relationship trust, abandonment concerns, and family difficulties.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and concerns and then try approaches that fit. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, combining ACT, attachment ideas, and client-centered conversation to match what helps most.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let someone continue work while living in another state or country, subject to the therapist's licensure and any applicable rules.
