About Robert
Robert Theriault is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who offers calm, straightforward help for people dealing with anger and related struggles. He focuses on practical goals and speaks plainly so clients can take real steps between sessions. He listens without judgment and adjusts his approach to each person's situation.
Sessions look different depending on the problem - sometimes they are skills-focused, sometimes they involve looking at life patterns that keep causing pain.
Background and approach
Robert draws on 24 years of clinical experience to guide that decision. Common concerns he addresses include relationship strain, family difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, depression, anxiety, and addiction. He also helps with grief, intimacy issues, self-esteem, career shifts, ADHD, and coping with major life changes.
Anger and control issues are part of his regular caseload. Robert often uses client-centered methods to make space for what matters to the person, and he blends cognitive behavioral tools when people need concrete behavior changes. He also brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques into sessions to support clarity and forward movement.
He practices in Delaware and conducts work in English. Conversations can include coaching elements and attention to body-mind practices; he has integrated yoga into his work as one way to support personal balance. People who want clear goals and honest, steady support often find his style helpful.

How his approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy puts the person's concerns at the center of each session. The therapist focuses on understanding what matters most to the client and shaping conversations around those priorities, which can help when sorting out anger, relationship strain, or life decisions.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger management, and habits that cause recurring problems.
He will work together with the client to choose the best approach. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process, and the therapist adjusts plans based on goals, progress, and personal preference.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text messaging make it simpler to keep momentum between meetings and to fit support into a busy schedule.
