About Robert

Robert Curriden is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with four years of clinical experience. He works with adults on issues such as trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, addictions, and LGBT-related concerns. He also supports people facing parenting stress, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, career questions, and coping with life changes.

Robert frames the client as the expert on their own story and builds on existing strengths. He uses a mix of approaches including attachment-based work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy and existential thinking. Sessions typically focus on identifying practical steps and testing new ways of coping.

In conversation he aims to keep things direct and clear. Conversations look at how relationships, habits, and thinking patterns affect day-to-day life. He helps people notice what keeps problems going and practice small changes that add up over time.

Robert has additional focus areas such as ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome, codependency, family of origin issues, and post-traumatic stress. He also works with concerns like compassion fatigue, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, traumatic brain injury, and young adult issues.

Sessions are conducted in English and Robert practices in New York. He uses a strengths-based orientation and practical techniques to help people move toward clearer goals and steadier routines. To begin, he asks clients to describe their priorities and what they want to change.

How Robert applies approaches in remote sessions

Robert draws from attachment-based and cognitive behavioral approaches in remote work. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people recognize connection needs and relationship expectations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like low mood, anxiety, or sleep trouble.

He treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can change as progress or obstacles appear.

Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work on mental health into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also let people practice skills in the settings where problems occur, or use phone-only meetings when bandwidth or camera use is a concern.
