About Robert
Dr. Robert Spaulding II is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 37 years of experience in the mental health field. He works with people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anger, anxiety, depression, addictions, and life changes. He also supports concerns such as parenting stress, grief, intimacy issues, ADHD, and career difficulties.
His approach is direct and practical. Sessions are interactive and focus on clear steps to manage emotions and improve daily functioning. He uses conversational work to identify trouble spots, try new behaviors, and track what makes a real difference.
Dr. Spaulding draws on several therapeutic methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change thought patterns that fuel anger and anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation focused on the client's experience and goals.
He has long experience in addiction settings and familiarity with 12-step models. That background informs work with substance use and the practical supports people need while changing habits. He also brings perspectives from Jungian therapy when deeper meaning or personal history becomes relevant.
People who choose him will find a counselor who emphasizes honesty, respect, and willingness to try different approaches. The focus is on making steady, usable changes rather than abstract theory. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice the thoughts and feelings that pull them toward old reactions, and then practice small actions that align with what they value. It is useful for anger that comes from feeling stuck or torn between options. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought patterns and testing them with real-life experiments, which helps reduce rumination, anxiety, and reactive responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches clear skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication under stress.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try methods, and adjust what they do based on what helps. That means making changes over time rather than committing to a single model up front.
The profile does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoid needing to be on camera when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can still teach and practice the same behavioral and skills-based work online, including role plays, behavioral experiments, and tracking exercises that apply to anger, relationships, and stress.
