About Robert
Robert has long experience supporting people who face both mental health and chemical health challenges at the same time. He has worked in residential programs, home-based care, and intensive outpatient settings. That background means he is familiar with practical everyday struggles and the ups and downs of recovery.
In sessions he uses approaches meant to fit the person in front of him rather than a single recipe. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, client-centered work, and mindfulness practices. He invites people to learn skills, notice what matters to them, and try small, manageable changes.
Robert aims to keep sessions warm and straightforward, bringing humor and realism where it helps. He often focuses on coping skills for impulsivity, sleep, anger, parenting challenges, and substance use. He also helps people with relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, and life transitions.
He speaks English and practices in Minnesota. To begin a match with him, follow the site steps to complete the brief questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It uses simple exercises to reduce avoidant habits and build a life that feels meaningful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that feed anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Mindfulness Therapy uses breathing, body awareness, and short meditations to reduce reactivity and improve attention.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. This is collaborative - approaches can be combined or adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and reduce travel time. It can also let people use shorter check-ins, avoid being on camera when that helps, or choose times that match work or caregiving schedules. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises to online sessions so clients can practice skills between meetings and track progress without changing their daily routine.
