About Robert
Robert Marshall is a counsellor who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, depression and grief. He also helps with intimacy issues, sleeping and eating problems, parenting stress, work concerns and life transitions. Robert uses listening and empathy to make it easier to talk about hard things.
He trained as a Qualified Person Centred Counsellor and holds BACP registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Robert draws on a mix of approaches he has used in practice and through volunteering, including cognitive behavioural techniques and motivational interviewing.
Background and approach
This means he can blend short-term practical tools with a focus on personal experience. Sessions aim to be straightforward and down to earth. Robert says he does not judge people and seeks to offer a calm, compassionate space.
Conversations often begin by looking at what matters now, then move on to clearer steps or new ways of thinking where useful. Robert has personal experience of recovery from addiction and depression, and he shares that perspective carefully to support others. He uses emotional awareness and reflective dialogue to help people understand patterns and options.
People can expect an unhurried, empathic style that balances talking through feelings with practical ideas. Robert works with adults in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients for online sessions.

How Robert's approaches shape online work
Robert blends client-centred counselling with cognitive behavioural ideas to offer both emotional support and practical steps. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping the person lead the pace of work; it suits people who need space to make sense of feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link and offers straightforward techniques to tackle anxiety, low mood or sleep problems.He also uses motivational interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change when they are stuck. That approach is conversational and collaborative, useful for addictions, ambivalence about change, and building motivation. Together these methods allow sessions to be shaped around the person's goals and preferences, and the therapist will work with each client to find the best mix.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is good for a near face-to-face experience, phone works well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, chat or messaging can suit brief check-ins or people who prefer not to speak aloud. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel, while keeping continuity when circumstances change.
