Robert Theriault

Robert Theriault, who often goes by Chip, helps people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or angry. He works with issues like depression, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, and anger. He aims to be non-judgmental while keeping conversations focused and goal-oriented. Robert holds an LMFT and brings 24 years of experience to his work in Delaware.

He adapts his approach to what each person needs rather than using one set method. Sessions may include practical talk about thoughts and behaviors, exercises that build awareness, and tools to manage strong emotions. Robert emphasizes whole-person care and sometimes incorporates yoga ideas to help clients feel more balanced.

Many people come to him for help after losses, difficult family patterns, or trauma. He also supports those dealing with addiction, career changes, and issues around identity and intimacy. He uses several approaches such as client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, existential perspectives, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to guide the work.

Robert describes therapy as a collaborative process. He listens for patterns that cause pain and helps people try different ways to respond. The goal is clearer choices and steadier coping in daily life.

Practical matters are kept simple. Sessions follow the client’s goals and pace. He encourages people to bring what matters most and to test new ways of relating and behaving between visits.

How his approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead. It helps people feel heard and develop their own solutions by building trust and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and awareness skills to reduce reactivity and support calmer responses to difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Robert will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, values, and daily life. He may mix conversational listening with short exercises or homework and will check in to see what helps and what needs adjusting.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about how to shape sessions so they fit your routine and feel useful.
