About Aimee

Dr. Aimee Robertson is a clinical psychologist licensed in Arizona (AZ Psychologist PSY 005132) with 14 years of experience in mental and behavioral health. She focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a broad range of emotional and relationship challenges.

Her work often centers on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, and relationship strains. She aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable for people who are unsure where to begin.

Background and approach

She keeps sessions direct and easy to follow. She listens without judgment and helps people name what matters most to them. Conversations are practical and focused on concrete changes.

Therapy often includes short-term strategies clients can try between sessions. Dr. Robertson uses several evidence-based methods.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, achievable goals and what works now. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the effects of past hurt and how to reduce its hold on daily life.

Her background includes years working with a wide range of concerns such as ADHD, grief, parenting challenges, addiction, mood disorders, and issues related to gender and sexuality. She also addresses family-specific topics like blended family issues, divorce and separation, and family of origin problems. This variety informs a flexible style that adapts to each person’s practical needs.

Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. The subscription-based model can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. In practice this means the therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps them find their own solutions; this approach can be useful for people who need acceptance and clearer priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavioral experiments to shift mood and habits; this can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Treatment is adjusted collaboratively over time so it fits the client’s needs.

Online therapy through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging gives practical flexibility. It makes it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to continue work between appointments. This format supports ongoing check-ins, real-time coaching, and short exercises that can be used at home or on the go.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
