About Robert
Robert Nijjar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with seven years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and life transitions. He takes a practical, down-to-earth approach so clients can start making changes right away.
He begins by listening to each person’s story and identifying strengths they already have. Sessions often involve setting small goals, practicing new skills, and tracking progress between meetings.
Background and approach
He emphasizes understanding and acceptance as steps toward building better habits and choices. Robert uses several approaches that emphasize values, present-moment awareness, and the client’s own insight. He blends acceptance and commitment ideas with client-centered listening and mindfulness techniques to help people reduce struggle and move toward what matters.
Motivational interviewing and narrative work are used when clients want to explore motivation or rewrite unhelpful stories about themselves. People come to him for a wide range of concerns, from parenting and career questions to intimacy-related issues and coping after trauma. He also supports those dealing with communication problems, impulsivity, guilt, and social anxiety.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and focused on practical next steps. Robert works with adults in Louisiana and conducts sessions in English. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their routines and comfort.

Approaches that shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed actions toward them while learning to live with hard feelings. It can help people whose anger or anxiety gets in the way of meaningful goals. Client-Centered Therapy centers on careful listening and empathy so clients feel heard and can find their own solutions; this approach is useful for processing relationship issues and building self-esteem.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Robert will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities. He may combine techniques from different approaches as progress is made and needs shift.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful when visual cues and a fuller conversation matter, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or messaging can support brief check-ins, homework discussion, and on-the-go coaching between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy schedules and changing routines.
