About Warren
Dr. Warren Roby is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with five years of counseling experience. He frames counseling as a learning process and focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, self-esteem, career issues, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, relationship strain, grief, sleep problems, anger, and compassion fatigue.
He helps people put words to what they are feeling by drawing on his background in linguistics and languages. That makes conversations concrete and practical. He guides clients to identify realistic next steps and plans they can try between sessions.
Roby’s international work and travel have shaped how he listens to people from different backgrounds. He talks with clients about cultural and immigration concerns and the practical challenges of overseas moves when those issues are present.
Career concerns are a major focus. He has decades of experience in higher education and uses that familiarity to help clients think through burnout, workplace conflict, downsizing anxiety, and career transitions. He supports practical problem solving alongside emotional work.
His approach draws from client-centered, existential, mindfulness, narrative, and solution-focused methods. Sessions tend to emphasize clear language, goal-oriented steps, and exploring personal meaning so clients can make changes that fit their life.
Sessions are available in English, Spanish, and French, and he accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's concerns. Online sessions let the counselor and client talk through what matters most and build steps the client can try between meetings. Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice, and the challenges of change. In a few sessions this can help when a client is facing career transitions, midlife questions, or feelings of emptiness. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and build steadier attention, which can help with anxiety and sleep difficulties.Choosing which approach to use is something to figure out together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and current needs, then suggest which methods to try first. That collaborative planning can be adjusted as work progresses so sessions remain practical and focused.
Confirm the available session formats before booking to make sure they fit your routine. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins if needed, or reduce travel time when juggling work and family tasks. If you have a preference for how sessions are run, mention it in the matching questionnaire so scheduling can reflect what will work best for you.
