My Approach to Therapy

It’s an Inside Job

Virgil Roberson draws on a variety of therapeutic techniques and models. His methodology is rooted in psychoanalytic principles while incorporating elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and relational therapy.

Psychoanalytic Principles: Central to Virgil’s approach is the use of psychoanalytic principles, which focus on exploring unconscious patterns and unresolved conflicts that may be impacting clients’ thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By delving into these deeper layers of the psyche, clients gain insight into the root causes of their challenges and can work towards lasting transformation.

Cognitive-Behavioral Techniques: Virgil also integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors. By promoting awareness and developing more adaptive coping strategies, clients can effectively manage their symptoms and achieve their therapeutic goals.

Psychodynamic and Relational Perspectives: Virgil’s therapy incorporates psychodynamic and relational perspectives, emphasizing the importance of the therapeutic relationship in facilitating growth and healing. Through empathic attunement and collaborative exploration, clients can develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships, paving the way for meaningful change.
