About Robert

Robert Holliday is a licensed professional counselor who uses a solution-focused approach to help people move forward. He draws on 25 years of experience and keeps sessions goal-oriented and practical. He aims to help clients identify clear steps they can take to feel better and regain control.

Robert is based in Hawaii and offers services in English. Before focusing on independent practice, he worked in a range of educational and clinical roles.

Background and approach

His background includes school counseling, college counseling, and work as a school behavioral specialist. He also served as a Military Family Life Counselor and provided mental health therapy in other settings. That varied experience means he has seen many common struggles.

He has worked with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, social phobia, eating disorders, attention challenges, learning differences, substance dependence, and autism. He has also responded to crises involving self-harm, harm to others, suicidal thoughts, and grief. In sessions he keeps the work focused on solutions and clear goals.

He encourages practical choices and helps people build skills they can use right away. His aim is to create an atmosphere of trust where progress is steady and measurable. Robert holds LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor and LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor credentials.

He applies his experience to areas like parenting, stress, career questions, relationship concerns, ADHD, bipolar, sleeping problems, anger, and coaching. Clients may find his style direct, structured, and oriented toward real-world results.

Solution-Focused Care Online and Practical Support

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on finding concrete steps that move a person toward their goals. It focuses on small, useful changes that can add up quickly, and it is often helpful for issues like stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, career decisions, and sleep problems.

Robert combines his solution-focused orientation with a practical, goal-driven stance. He works with clients to set clear targets and to try experiments between sessions. Together they track progress and adjust plans based on what helps most, so the approach stays collaborative and user-driven.

Online sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life. Video calls let people see and talk in real time, phone sessions offer a simpler option, and live chat or text messaging allow short check-ins and ongoing support between appointments. These formats increase flexibility so clients in Hawaii and beyond can work on goals from wherever they are.

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.
