About Bobbi
Bobbi Warner Somers is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Vermont with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on concerns such as depression, anxiety, addictions, parenting, family conflict, and anger. Bobbi works with adults and young adults on everyday problems that interrupt life and relationships.
Her background includes long experience in human services and mental health work. Bobbi draws on methods from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice patterns and try practical alternatives. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to set realistic goals and keep momentum.
In sessions she aims to build a straightforward working relationship first. Conversations usually move from current problems to small, concrete steps people can use right away. She helps clients identify triggers, practice different responses, and track what changes over time.
Bobbi often addresses issues tied to addiction, codependency, control, guilt, and impulsivity alongside mood and anxiety concerns. She helps people handle anger that shows up at work, home, or in relationships by focusing on coping skills and clearer communication.
Practical problem solving is a regular part of her approach. Clients and therapist set goals together and try tools between sessions. The aim is clearer thinking, fewer automatic reactions, and more control over how to respond in difficult moments.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can clarify their own goals. In practice this means the therapist encourages people to talk through what matters most and then names options for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it fits problems like anxiety, low mood, and anger by giving concrete exercises to try between meetings. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or ambivalent about change by exploring values and strengthening motivation.Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit those needs. If something isn’t helpful, the plan is adjusted together so work stays practical and relevant.
Session formats are not detailed here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, to have shorter check-ins when needed, or to avoid travel time. It also allows continuing work through life transitions and keeping momentum between in-person visits when that is helpful.
