About Robert
Dr. Robert Hunt helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and problems with self-esteem. He works with those coping with life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy or relationship concerns. He also supports people managing ADHD, bipolar symptoms, sleep and eating issues, and career or parenting stresses.
He uses a straightforward, compassionate approach in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what practical steps can help. He listens for patterns linked to attachment, emotion, and behavior, then helps clients try different ways of responding.
Over 26 years as a licensed professional counselor, he has worked with many adults on a range of emotional and behavioral concerns. He draws on client-centered principles to keep the work grounded in each person’s goals. Cognitive behavioral tools are used when helpful to shift unhelpful thoughts and routines.
He also incorporates attachment-based ideas to address relationship and intimacy difficulties, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally-focused work when emotion regulation or close relationships are central. Sessions aim to build coping skills and clearer communication.

Step 3
Approaches that shape online sessions
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and closeness. It helps when trust, intimacy, or recurring conflict keep showing up in relationships. Client-centered therapy puts the person’s goals and experience at the center. The therapist follows the client’s pace, reflects what is said, and helps clarify values and choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers tools for testing unhelpful thoughts and building routines that reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is often part of the early work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made. This keeps therapy collaborative and tailored to changing needs.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy day, allowing shorter check-ins or meetings that avoid travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep continuity through life changes and to practice skills between meetings while staying connected with a licensed professional.
