About Roberta

Roberta Garrett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and holds CSW credentials, and she is also a Certified Addictions Counselor III with forty years of professional experience in medical and mental health settings as well as in private practice. Her long career has focused on helping people navigate addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, grief and loss, and life transitions, with additional attention to trauma, compassion fatigue, and depression.

Garrett uses collaborative, client-centered methods that prioritize the individual's values and goals while incorporating narrative techniques to help people reframe difficult experiences and build coping skills. She works with those facing aging and geriatric concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and the complex emotions that follow divorce, infidelity, or end-of-life situations. Roberta brings particular experience supporting clients through substance use struggles and the interpersonal impacts those struggles can have.

Her practice emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed openly. Seeking change can feel challenging, and Garrett offers steady support and practical guidance to empower clients as they pursue greater fulfillment and improved well-being.

Client-Centered and Narrative Care Online

Roberta Garrett integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Narrative Therapy into her online work to help clients find practical ways forward. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening deeply and reflecting the client's own goals - it helps people build coping skills, gain clarity about relationships, and feel supported while navigating life changes. Narrative Therapy encourages clients to separate themselves from their problems and to re-author the stories that shape their lives, which can be useful for addressing addiction, grief, and patterns rooted in family of origin issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Garrett works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions and pacing so that therapy feels purposeful and aligned with the client’s values.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or ongoing text-based messaging depending on what works best for the client. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, caregiving, health limitations, or geographic constraints, while still accessing support from licensed professionals and therapists who use evidence-informed approaches.
