About Robert

Robert Johnson is a Florida LMHC with 40 years of clinical experience supporting adults through major life transitions and distress. He has regularly worked with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, self-esteem concerns, and coping with life changes. He also helps people who are questioning life purpose and meaning.

Over four decades he has seen a wide range of problems. That includes abandonment and attachment issues, avoidant or dependent personality patterns, narcissistic relationship dynamics, and communication difficulties. He has worked with people facing chronic pain, illness, cancer, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and the emotional effects of divorce and separation.

In sessions he uses an existential framework to help clients name what matters to them and how their values shape choices. Conversations focus on real dilemmas people face - relationships, work, aging, and the question of what comes next. He aims to help people rebuild self-esteem and strengthen how they communicate with others.

He is open to discussing spiritual or faith-based concerns when that matters to a client, and he also works from a non-religious perspective. Sessions emphasize straightforward talk about feelings, patterns, and practical steps to manage difficult moments. He encourages reflection about priorities and next steps without promising any specific outcome.

Robert is based in Florida and conducts work in English. Prospective clients who want to proceed are asked to use the site’s matching tool and scheduling options to set up an initial appointment.

Existential approaches and online sessions

Existential Therapy helps people confront big questions about meaning, responsibility, and how to live with uncertainty. It focuses on what matters to the person and how values shape everyday choices, which can be useful for work transitions, midlife questions, and decisions after loss.

The therapist frames conversations around real-life concerns such as relationships, aging, illness, and life purpose. Sessions are conversational and reflective, aiming to clarify priorities and identify practical next steps rather than offering fixed solutions. This makes the approach a fit for people feeling stuck or unsure what comes next.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to determine whether an existential focus or other ways of working are the best fit. He discusses goals and preferences early on and adjusts the approach as the relationship develops.

The biography did not list which online formats are offered, so please confirm session options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals often use remote sessions to keep continuity of care during life changes and to make therapy easier to fit into everyday routines.
