About Robert

Dr. Robert Egbert brings more than three decades of clinical experience to his practice in Washington.

Background and approach

He holds a PH.D. in Counseling Psychology and an Ed.D., and is credentialed as an LMHC. Over the years he has worked in school counseling and family therapy settings, gaining a broad perspective on developmental, relationship, and behavior concerns.

His work is eclectic and practical, drawing on approaches such as cognitive behavioral methods, family-focused techniques, and existential ideas to address issues like depression, anxiety, ADHD, eating and sleeping problems, grief, addictions, and challenges in relationships and parenting. Dr.

Egbert emphasizes clear communication and collaborative problem solving while adapting methods to fit each person’s needs and life stage. Outside of clinical work he values family life and time outdoors, and he shares a home with a professional writer.

He accepts international clients and offers a range of session formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Dr. Egbert often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to address issues like anxiety, depression, and some habit-related concerns. He also applies elements of Emotionally-Focused work and family-oriented methods to help people improve communication, resolve relational patterns, and strengthen emotional connections in close relationships.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help explore the client’s goals, preferences, and practical needs, then tailor strategies from these approaches to suit the person and situation rather than applying a single method rigidly.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in this work through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, connect from different locations including internationally, and continue continuity of care when in-person visits are impractical. Licensed professionals can adapt the selected methods to these formats so that clients can pursue consistent, goal-oriented therapy in a way that fits their life.
