About Georgia

Dr. Georgia Robertson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 23 years of clinical experience. She worked many years as a hospice grief counselor and now maintains a private practice in Colorado. Her background also includes roles as a librarian, professor, and oncology counselor, which shaped her approach to loss and life transition.

She helps people facing major life changes such as job loss, divorce, aging, or a serious illness. Grief and bereavement are central to her work, along with trauma, stress, anxiety, and depression. She also supports people dealing with caregiver strain, cancer-related concerns, and questions about life purpose and self-worth.

Her style is warm and companionable. She aims to help clients identify goals and build on personal strengths. Sessions focus on practical coping skills and clear steps toward making change.

Dr. Robertson integrates several therapeutic approaches in her work, including mindfulness practices, cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance and commitment ideas, client-centered listening, and motivational interviewing. She adapts methods to match each person’s needs rather than following a single formula.

Her past experience in hospice and oncology informs how she talks about end-of-life issues, aging, and caregiver stress. She has used language-based approaches such as poetry therapy in previous roles and brings that sensitivity to conversations about meaning and loss.

People who want a thoughtful, steady guide through difficult transitions may find her approach helpful. To begin, follow the site's start steps and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule a session.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes paying attention in the present moment with curiosity and kindness. It can help reduce rumination and ground people who feel overwhelmed by grief or anxiety. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and on clarifying personal values to guide action. It is useful for stress, depression, and big life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy centers on empathetic listening and respect, giving people space to tell their story and find their own solutions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively to try strategies, notice what helps, and adjust the plan to fit the client’s needs and goals. This is a shared decision rather than a fixed prescription.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also offers flexibility for people who need counseling while managing caregiving, medical appointments, or work schedules.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
