Dr. Georgia Robertson

Dr. Georgia Robertson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 23 years of experience working in hospice grief counseling and private practice. She brings a calm, steady presence to difficult conversations about illness, loss, and major life changes. Her background also includes work in oncology, teaching, and library services, which informs a practical and thoughtful approach to care.

She describes her style as warm and companionate. Sessions focus on identifying what matters to the person, naming strengths, and setting small, workable goals. She helps people build coping skills for grief, stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem while honoring what feels meaningful to them.

Her clinical approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive-behavioral ideas, client-centered techniques, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. In practice this means combining practical tools with time to reflect, process emotion, and make intentional choices. She adapts methods to fit each person’s needs rather than using a single formula.

Dr. Robertson has long experience supporting people facing aging, serious illness, caregiver strain, and end-of-life concerns. She also works with people navigating divorce, job loss, loneliness, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Her background in poetry therapy informs how she uses language and narrative in sessions.

People who want a supportive guide through transition and loss may find her approach helpful. She invites stories with curiosity and helps clients explore next steps at a pace that feels manageable.

How her approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small, meaningful steps toward them. It helps when people feel stuck by anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce distress and improve mood. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and experience, offering a supportive space to process grief and difficult decisions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That might mean trying a few techniques and adjusting over time so the plan matches what helps most.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by saving travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. It can also make it possible to continue care while coping with illness, caregiving duties, or reduced mobility. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises for a remote session, including mindfulness practices, thought-record tools, and values-based planning, so therapeutic work moves forward even when meeting from different locations.
