Robert Hardee, LCPC

Robert Hardee is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with eight years of clinical experience. He centers his work on clear, practical strategies and a respectful, person-focused approach. He aims to make conversations straightforward and useful for people under stress.

He commonly helps people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, ADHD, grief, and trauma. He also addresses relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, anger, career stress, and mood conditions such as bipolar. Additional focuses include abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, and problems tied to divorce, domestic violence, and substance use.

Sessions begin by listening to what matters most to the person seeking help. He uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), client-centered work, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and existential ideas to fit each person's needs. The emphasis is on practical steps people can try between sessions and thinking differently about troublesome patterns.

Robert has experience supporting people who experienced physical, emotional, or sexual abuse in childhood or adulthood. He works to build trust slowly and to create a calm space where people can speak about difficult memories and ongoing struggles.

He sees therapy as a collaborative effort. The person is treated as the expert on their life while Robert offers tools, questions, and feedback to help them move toward clearer thinking and steadier daily routines. He practices in Idaho and speaks English.

How Robert adapts CBT and client-centered work online

Robert commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and client-centered methods to help people change unhelpful thoughts and build practical coping skills. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that increase stress or anxiety and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms. Client-centered work emphasizes listening, validation, and tailoring the pace to what feels manageable for the person.

He also pulls in mindfulness and motivational interviewing when it fits - mindfulness teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity, while motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to make change. Choosing the right mix is a collaborative process; he talks with each person about goals and preferences and adjusts methods over time to match progress and comfort.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth work and skills practice, phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat offers a quicker check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats can make scheduling easier and let people continue therapy from different locations and daily routines.
