About Robert
Dr. Robert Egbert brings more than 30 years of clinical work to his practice. He is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Washington. He has a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and an Ed.D., and he writes plainly with practical focus when meeting people for the first time.
He has worked as a school counselor and as a family therapist, so he is comfortable talking through concerns that touch different life stages. Common topics he helps people with include depression, anxiety, attention challenges, career decisions, relationship and communication problems, parenting stress, and eating or sleeping difficulties.
His approach is eclectic: he draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, family therapies, emotionally focused work, and some existential perspectives. That means sessions center on the listener's experience while also using concrete tools when they help.
Sessions tend to focus on clear, practical steps - improving communication, managing anxiety, or making decisions about work and relationships. He describes therapy as a collaborative process where people learn ways to handle everyday stress and major life changes.
Outside of practice he enjoys the outdoors, travel, and radio. He lives with a professional writer and is a family person with three grown children. If self esteem is a concern, he includes it among the many issues he addresses in routine work.
