He also works with concerns such as abandonment and attachment issues, body image, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, panic attacks and panic disorder, post-traumatic stress, and workplace problems. His practice pays attention to mood disorders, social anxiety and phobia, self-love, narcissism, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Robert draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking steps toward a meaningful life - it can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and struggles with painful memories. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and a nonjudgmental presence so clients can explore emotions and build self-understanding - it is often helpful for grief, relationship difficulties, and self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replace them with more adaptive responses - it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Robert will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process may involve trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy with Robert is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. These options make it easier to access therapy from home or while balancing work and family life, and they allow registered professionals to provide consistent, ongoing support across a range of formats.
