About Robert
Robert Mace is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 30 years of experience. He helps people clear away what’s weighing them down and learn simple, repeatable skills to manage life’s challenges. He favors straightforward steps and practical exercises rather than long theory-heavy sessions.
He frames therapy as a short set of clear moves: listen to the problem, teach a short exercise to practice, and repeat until the client can use the tool on their own.
Background and approach
This approach is meant to leave people with usable self-therapy habits they can rely on after sessions end. A light touch of humor and creativity often appears during work together. Mace brings decades of varied counseling work to issues like stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and ADHD.
He also supports people coping with chronic pain, illness, disability, codependency, communication and commitment issues, and career or life transitions. His sessions tend to be practical and skill-focused. Clients can expect to learn short exercises to practice between meetings and straightforward feedback during sessions.
He prefers video sessions for richer interaction but also uses phone, live chat, and text-based messaging when needed. Based in Missouri, he works in English and combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavior ideas, emotionally focused skills, existential reflection, and mindfulness practices. The aim is to help people reduce what holds them back and build clear, repeatable habits for moving forward.
How therapy approaches shape online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s experience, helping people feel heard and guiding them to find their own solutions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches short, concrete exercises to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be practiced between sessions for steady progress. Emotionally-focused approaches concentrate on understanding and shifting emotional responses in relationships and personal patterns, useful for intimacy issues and repeated conflict.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose and adapt methods based on goals, comfort, and what feels most useful in day-to-day life. Sessions often try an exercise, review how it went, and adjust the plan together.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for fuller visual cues, phone sessions when bandwidth or a quick check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging for short updates or journaling between meetings. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain regular practice of tools, and keep momentum even when life gets hectic.
