Robert Roof , LPC

Robert Roof is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with six years of professional counseling experience. He balances a private practice with work in K-12 educational settings where he provides mental health counseling and coaching, and during winter months he also participates in avalanche mitigation and guides people through avalanche terrain on his snowboard. He is 48 years old, has been married for over 20 years, and is a parent to an adult daughter.

Robert works with people of all ages, offering counseling and coaching to individuals, couples, and families. He has supported clients coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, motivation and self-esteem concerns, addiction, grief, and issues related to avalanche experiences. His practice also addresses intimacy, sleep, parenting, anger, career questions, ADHD, and a range of additional concerns such as attachment and abandonment, blended family dynamics, body image, communication and control issues, and first responder or fatherhood difficulties.

His therapeutic stance is relational and client-centered, drawing on interpersonal, existential, and narrative ideas while remaining pragmatic and solution-focused. Robert approaches work as a collaborative process - standing as equals with clients to explore patterns, uncover blind spots, and pursue growth and purpose. As an LPC he holds state licensure to provide counseling in Colorado and emphasizes ethical, trustworthy care. He welcomes conversations to determine whether his style aligns with a person or family seeking support.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Robert

Robert integrates client-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, and narrative therapy into his online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening deeply and supporting the client's own goals, which can help with self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions. Motivational interviewing uses collaborative conversation to strengthen a person’s motivation for change, making it useful for ambivalence around habits, addiction, or behavior shifts. Narrative therapy helps people reframe the stories they tell about themselves by separating problems from identity, which can be especially helpful for trauma, grief, and family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Robert works collaboratively with clients to identify methods that align with their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors sessions to what feels most helpful and adjusts strategies over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing sessions to fit into busy schedules and varied lifestyles. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, try different session formats, and access licensed professionals from wherever a person is located within the therapist's practice area.
