About Robert
Robert Wubbenhorst is a Vermont Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 15 years of practice. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, sleep problems, anger, and career or life-change stress. Sessions are presented in English and aim to address patterns that keep people stuck.
Robert uses practical, structured methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with client-centered approaches and mindfulness strategies to help people try different ways of responding. He also uses techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and hypnotherapy when appropriate.
In conversation, he focuses on specific behaviors and thoughts to create small, testable changes. That can mean tracking reactions, practising alternative responses, and learning short skills people can use between sessions. He also offers coaching-style support for career questions and navigating midlife transitions.
Robert’s background includes work in community mental health, higher education, and private practice. He has experience with crisis intervention, suicide prevention, and supervising counselors in training. His past roles have included work with veterans and first responders, and with people living with severe mental illness.
People who choose him can expect a direct, structured approach. He encourages honesty about how therapy is going and will suggest adjustments if an approach isn’t working. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How CBT, client-centered work, and DBT translate to online sessions
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative responses. It breaks problems into concrete parts and uses simple exercises to change thinking and behavior, which can be practiced between sessions.Client-centered work emphasizes listening and reflecting so people can describe their concerns and decide what matters most. This approach supports setting personal goals and choosing steps that fit the person’s life.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It provides short strategies for distress tolerance and emotion regulation that people can use in difficult moments.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust plans based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which strategies to emphasize as work progresses.
The exact session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting, work breaks, or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce commuting time, and let people practice skills in regular settings without needing to be on camera for every meeting.
