01About Bobbi
Bobbi Cleary is a Licensed Professional Counselor who blends holistic ideas with straightforward counseling. She emphasizes practical tools that people can use day to day. Her tone is warm and she focuses on helping clients find strength and steady progress.
Bobbi keeps things flexible because no two people are the same. She describes her style as eclectic and pulls from different methods to meet specific goals. Her work often includes reflective listening, cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness, self-compassion practices, self-regulation techniques, and Gottman ideas for relationship concerns.
Background and approach
She earned a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Alaska Pacific University in 2005 and a Bachelor of Arts in Japanese Studies from the University of Alaska Fairbanks in 1998. Living in Japan for two years shaped her interest in how language and culture influence behavior and motivation.
Her background includes work in psychiatric inpatient and residential programs as well as outpatient agencies and independent practice. That mix of settings gave her experience with intake assessments, group work, and individual therapy. She draws on that experience when helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, addictions, and bipolar symptoms.
Bobbi also supports people facing relationship and intimacy issues, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem struggles, career concerns, and LGBT-related matters. She aims to build connection first so work on practical skills can follow. Her Alaska roots shape a patient, steady approach to change.

04Online support
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Bobbi uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. These strategies are useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and managing mood swings.She also incorporates mindfulness and self-compassion practices to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce self-criticism. These approaches can help with trauma responses, grief, and when emotions feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to goals and preferences, and may combine techniques as progress unfolds. The focus is on practical tools and gradual steps rather than one fixed method.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversations from wherever they are, while phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into busy days. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, mood tracking, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people keep therapy consistent around work, family, or travel.
