About Robert
Robert May is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in Kentucky with 13 years of experience. He began practicing in 2011 and has worked across mood, anxiety, trauma, grief, and identity concerns. Robert aims to offer respectful, nonjudgmental support to people coming through difficult times.
He uses a direct and warm style in sessions. Conversations are interactive and reflective, and he listens for what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
Robert avoids stigmatizing labels and focuses on practical steps clients can try between meetings. His work often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also uses client-centered methods to keep sessions grounded in the client’s goals and experience.
Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are woven in to help with stress, anger, and managing day-to-day challenges. Robert has worked with people facing relationship strain, career and workplace problems, and identity-related concerns including LGBTQ matters. He also helps with sleep and eating issues, parenting stress, and coping with life changes.
Trauma-informed care is part of his approach when past events affect present functioning. When someone is ready to start, Robert tailors conversations and a plan to that person’s needs. He aims to support and empower people taking steps toward better coping and greater wellbeing.

How his approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely to each person and shaping sessions around their goals. Online sessions let the therapist follow the client’s lead while offering regular feedback and adjustments to the plan.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thought and behavior that cause distress and then tests small changes to see what helps. In remote sessions this often includes short between-session exercises and practical skill-building that people can try in daily life.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These practices translate well to video or phone sessions and can be reviewed during brief chat or text check-ins.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and personal style, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and differing needs. Video calls are useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a short break at work or require less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging supports quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing accountability between sessions.
