About Robert
Robert Jarvis is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. He has mainly worked in the charity sector and now draws on newer cognitive approaches to guide his practice. Robert aims to create a respectful and compassionate space for people who are feeling overwhelmed or stuck.
He commonly helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger and low self-esteem. Depression and difficulties sleeping are also part of his day-to-day work, as are life changes and relationship strain.
Background and approach
He is used to talking through problems that come from past trauma and abuse, and the general challenges that come with being human. Robert's background began in integrative counselling but shifted towards third-wave cognitive models. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) alongside existential ideas to shape sessions.
This blend helps people notice unhelpful thinking, try new actions, and consider broader life meaning. Sessions are shaped around each person's goals and circumstances. Robert focuses on practical steps you can try between meetings, and on building skills to manage strong feelings.
He keeps the work straightforward and grounded, aiming for small, steady changes rather than quick fixes. People meet him for a mix of short-term problem-solving and longer conversations about life direction. He works in a calm, non-judgemental way and adapts his approach to what each person needs.

Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It teaches straightforward techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and to build habits that reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Robert will discuss ACT, CBT and existential ideas with each person and decide together what to try first. The choice is collaborative and can change as needs and goals evolve.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls work well for fuller conversations and face-to-face connection. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need something quicker during a break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, notes between meetings or when typing feels easier than talking.
These options make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time and keep momentum between sessions while working on stress, depression or relationship concerns.
