About Georgia

Dr. Georgia Robertson is a licensed professional counselor with 23 years of clinical experience. She has worked in hospice grief counseling and in oncology settings, and she maintains a private practice in Colorado. She uses a warm, companionable manner to help people facing big life changes and hard losses.

Her background includes roles as a librarian and professor, and she has used language-based approaches such as poetry therapy in the past. Those varied experiences shape how she listens and responds. She focuses on grief, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem concerns.

Many people come to her while navigating caregiving, cancer, aging, hospice situations, or major transitions like job loss or divorce. She describes her role as walking alongside clients, helping them name goals and notice strengths. Her work pays attention to feelings of emptiness, isolation, compassion fatigue, and questions about life purpose.

Dr. Robertson blends several clinical methods in conversation with each person. She draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques, client-centered listening, mindfulness practices, acceptance and commitment ideas, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic perspectives to tailor the work. She aims to help people build practical coping skills that fit their day-to-day life.

She invites prospective clients to share their stories and to shape the pace of therapy together. People who prefer a supportive, reflective therapist who also offers active skills practice may find her approach a good match.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thinking and commit to actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions by focusing on what matters and small practical steps. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting so the person feels understood; it supports self-directed growth and can be calming during periods of loss or change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and uses concrete skill work to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made or new challenges show up.

Confirm the specific session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, or offer a quieter way to check in when schedules are tight. It can also allow for practical skills practice between meetings and make follow-up check-ins simpler when life gets busy. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt these approaches to the online setting to focus on coping, grief work, and managing stress during big transitions.
