About Robert
Robert Curriden is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage strong emotions and rebuild day-to-day functioning. He works with adults facing issues like trauma, depression, low self-esteem, anger, addiction, and life changes. He speaks English and practices in New York as an NY LMHC.
He begins by listening closely to understand each person's story and current struggles. Sessions are grounded in respect for the client's experience and strengths.
Background and approach
The aim is to make small, practical changes that add up over time. Robert uses a mix of approaches to match the person in front of him. He draws on client-centered ideas to keep sessions collaborative and focused on what matters most to the individual.
Cognitive behavioral techniques help identify unhelpful thinking and build healthier habits. Dialectical behavior skills are used when emotions feel overwhelming, offering tools for managing distress and communicating more clearly. Attachment-based ideas help explore how past relationships affect present patterns and connections.
People may come for help with sleep problems, grief, parenting stress, or struggles tied to identity and relationships. Robert also supports clients who face ADHD, codependency, autism-related concerns, traumatic brain injury, or isolation. Work typically involves setting clear goals, practicing new skills between sessions, and checking progress together.

Approaches that translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present patterns. It helps people understand where emotional reactions come from and supports building healthier connections in current life. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person at the center of the work and focuses on listening, reflection, and respecting each person's values and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for depression, anxiety, and anger management.Choosing an approach is a shared task. The therapist will review what matters most to the client and suggest methods that fit their goals. Together they will try strategies, track what works, and adjust the plan over time so sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions let people talk face to face when that helps. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break at work. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing skill practice, or when someone prefers writing. These options make it simpler to keep consistent work toward goals without long commutes or scheduling barriers.
