Dr. Robert Spaulding II

Dr. Robert Spaulding II helps people who are struggling with anger, relationship problems, trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 37 years of experience in the mental health field. He uses straightforward, practical work to help people move forward.

He describes his approach as interactive, engaging, and direct. Sessions focus on building an honest working relationship first. From there he and the client set clear goals and practical next steps to try between meetings.

Therapy draws on several approaches to fit what each person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clarify values and accept difficult feelings while taking action. Client-centered work keeps the conversation grounded in the client’s experience.

Dr. Spaulding also works with issues related to addiction, grief, parenting, attention challenges, intimacy, and work stress. He has long personal experience in recovery and familiarity with 12-step programs, which informs how he talks about substance use and relapse prevention.

Practical steps are emphasized throughout therapy. He helps people make small, achievable changes and builds on those successes. The tone in sessions is respectful and candid, with an aim toward helping clients regain control over their lives.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with their values. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and anger when someone wants clearer priorities and steady action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning; it can help with anger, depression, and attention-related difficulties. Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the client’s experience and values, providing a space where goals are shaped at the client’s pace.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into daily life because they reduce travel time and allow therapy to occur from a familiar routine. Others prefer shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or audio-only conversations when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can tailor the pacing and tools used in remote sessions so they match a client’s goals and day-to-day demands.
