About Bobbi
Bobbi Warner Somers is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Vermont with 15 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, LGBT issues, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
She offers a straightforward, collaborative approach. Sessions begin with building a working relationship and identifying immediate goals. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy to find practical tools that fit each person.
Bobbi often helps people address substance use and related patterns such as codependency, control issues, and impulsivity. She also works with mood disorders, social anxiety, midlife transitions, caregiver stress, and issues common to young adults and women. Common focuses include communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and family problems.
In sessions she uses clear techniques and short-term strategies alongside deeper conversation when needed. That can mean practicing skills, looking at thinking patterns that keep problems going, or setting small goals to change behavior. She emphasizes steps people can try between meetings to see what helps.
Her practice is based in Vermont and she conducts work in English. People interested in starting are asked to use the platform matching process to schedule a first appointment and to confirm current session options before booking.

Using CBT and Motivational Interviewing in remote care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's concerns and helps build the relationship needed for change. It supports work on self-esteem, grief, and relationship issues by prioritizing the person's perspective.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. It is practical and skill-based, useful for anxiety, depression, social phobia, and mood concerns through exercises and checking how thoughts affect actions.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It can be useful for addictions, ambivalence about behavior change, and for setting small achievable goals.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative step. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit those needs. Plans can be adjusted over time if something is not working.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and make it easier to try tools between meetings. Online work can also reduce travel time and let conversations happen from a quieter location when that is possible.
