About Robert

Dr. Robert Spaulding II is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 37 years of experience in the mental health field. He works with adults facing relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, addictions, ADHD, and related concerns. Sessions focus on practical steps and straightforward conversation rather than jargon.

He uses a mix of approaches to match the problem at hand. Client-Centered Therapy guides the tone of sessions, with attention to what matters to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) provide concrete skills to manage thoughts, mood, and behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Jungian ideas may be included when they fit a person’s needs.

In sessions he favors an interactive and direct style. People can expect clear feedback, skill practice, and tangible strategies for coping with anger, stress, relationship tension, and parenting challenges. He also draws on long experience with addiction recovery when that is part of the picture.

Dr. Spaulding frames work around honesty, respect, and willingness to try new ways of handling problems. He describes therapy as a practical process where a map is built together and adjusted as needed. His aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

People who prefer an experienced clinician who mixes practical skills with conversational work may find this approach fits their needs. Sessions are in English, and international clients are accepted. Confirm current session options and scheduling before booking.

How sessions work

How his therapeutic approaches apply to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and taking actions that align with personal values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where small committed steps matter. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce stress, anger, and symptoms of ADHD and depression. Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods to try based on their goals and daily life. That means sessions may mix approaches over time and adjust as progress is made. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to continue therapy when life changes or relocation occur. The practical aim is to build skills and routines that fit into everyday life rather than require special arrangements.
