Robert goes ABOVE and BEYOND what anyone would want of a therapist. He’s a wonderful listener, and also is able to steer you in the ritht direct quickly, and effectively. It only took me one session to explore what I truly needed to understand about myself to move towards a happier future. Thanks again !

Outstanding.

Chip is a therapist almost as if without being a therapist. What i mean by that is i don’t feel a weird stigma or like I’m entering the door to the whole “the doctor will see you now” experience. Each session has felt like a casual conversation one has with their friend at a bar. Obviously in this case Chip is the one encouraging you to do the right and most sensible thing rather than the impulsive. These last 3 sessions have done wonders for my internal and external aspect to my life and i look forward to our future progress.

Absolute best therapist I've ever had. I've made more progress in my year long journey with Chip than I have with all of my other previous therapists combined. Without doubt, he's gotten me through some of the darkest periods of my life. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of an empathetic, compassionate, but thorough therapist. He doesn't hesitate to call me out when needed but does so gently and with love. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I’ve had more progress with Robert than almost any other therapist I’ve had in the last 20 years. He’s honest, respectful, and responsive. He asks some of the best questions— ones that encourage me to be honest with myself about my own wants and needs. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for honest and compassionate therapy.

Chip is kind, a really good listener, and asks inspire questions to help untangle confusion. He is bold, and his boldness is kind. He’s helped me rewrite negative thought patterns, recover from addiction with mindfulness, work through social anxiety, and see life through new eyes. I am better because I applied what he taught me, and I will continue applying his counsel for life. My relationships have more love, understanding, compassion, patience, confidence, and more. Chip, thank you forever.

Chip is great. He is an excellent listener and is very thoughtful and deliberate in the comments he makes. He is a perfect fit for someone who is introspective, honest with himself and willing to do the work even when it is tough. Do not expect instant connection or progress. After 6 sessions we are just starting to hit our stride. Be patient and it will pay off in the long run.

Calm demeanor and great listener with timely suggestions. Has been instrumental in helping me sort out and organize my thoughts around relationships
Written on Mar 19, 2022 after therapy with Robert for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and self esteem
Robert is a very good listener. He threads the needle very well with challenging you, suggesting things you may not have thought of, but also being very receptive to your rationale of why/how a situation might be different than his initial read. I always have a clearer understanding of my own thoughts and feelings after talking to him, and usually a few added ideas for how I can stay ahead of or divert incoming issues.

I've been a member for about a month, after trying other kinds of similar therapy companies. I almost gave up after having unresponsive therapists who insist on video chat over any kind of session.
Robert however is kind, patient, honest and almost always available. He respects my choice of chat therapy, and respects my social anxiety issues. One day I may be able to switch to video to get more out of our sessions since I recognize I lose some time with texting but this right now is ideal. I'm never uncomfortable, and I feel confident in our sessions and can be open and honest.
I look forward to my sessions, instead of dreading them.
Robert is a gem, hold on to this one.

He is super warm and personable. Listens when he should, guides you where you need, and offers insight when it helps. I got so lucky when I was matched with him. Very intelligent, very caring, and fun to talk to. He has helped me so much.

The experience that I've had thus far is beyond my expectations. I had hesitations about reaching out to an online company, but thankfully I was extremely wrong. Robert Theriault has been a highlight of my life in the past few weeks. He is very knowledgeable and caring. Please do not hesitate to contact these wonderful people. They are truly there for you.

I knew we were going to be able to work together the minute he didn’t freak out and overly pathologies how sick I was when we first talked.
Right out of the gate my distortions were challenged and I was given space to find where the heck all of this was coming from in a kind, supportive and caring space.
I would for certain reach back to Robert again.
