Bobbi Warner Somers

Bobbi Warner Somers is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in Vermont with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and anger. Her approach also supports those managing relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, and life transitions.

Bobbi begins by building a trusting relationship and then helps people find what works for them. She listens first and asks questions to uncover strengths and goals. From there she introduces practical tools and simple skills you can use between sessions.

Her work draws on client-centered methods that focus on the person’s experience and on cognitive behavioral techniques that help change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses motivational interviewing to support readiness for change and solution-focused ideas to create quick, actionable steps.

In sessions she offers clear exercises, homework when helpful, and short-term strategies for coping with strong emotions. She supports people who struggle with caregiver stress, codependency, substance issues, guilt, shame, impulsivity, isolation, and seasonal mood shifts.

Bobbi describes therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people set realistic goals and tracks progress along the way. Her style is straightforward, compassionate, and goal-oriented to help people manage problems and build healthier routines.

How Her Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Bobbi uses client-centered therapy to focus on the person in front of her. This approach means she listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people shape goals that matter to them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way. CBT involves clear exercises and practical homework to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with mood, anger, and coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about their needs and preferences, then recommend strategies and techniques that fit those goals. This collaborative planning helps tailor the therapy to what a person wants to change.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, help people keep continuity between appointments, and allow short check-ins when helpful. It can also let someone use quieter surroundings, avoid travel, or choose sessions that match their schedule without promising a specific format in every case.
