Bobbi Warner Somers, LCMHC

Bobbi Warner Somers is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Vermont with 15 years of counseling experience. She focuses on common life struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, and anger. Sessions are conducted in English and aimed at adults seeking practical ways to manage difficult feelings and behaviors.

Bobbi draws from person-centered work and cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice patterns in thinking and action. She also uses motivational interviewing techniques to support change when alcohol or drug use is involved. Her style is straightforward and collaborative - she listens, asks clear questions, and helps people try specific tools between sessions.

Clients often bring problems like low self-esteem, control issues, codependency, or impulsivity. Bobbi also addresses caregiver stress, midlife transitions, social anxiety, seasonal mood shifts, and intimacy-related concerns. Conversations look at what currently gets in the way and what practical steps could ease daily life.

Her sessions typically focus on identifying small, testable changes - thinking experiments, behavior adjustments, and brief problem-solving strategies. People leave with simple techniques to practice, and a plan to notice what helps and what doesn’t. Progress is paced to the person’s goals and preferences.

Bobbi works from a belief that clients carry much of the answer already. Her role is to clarify options, offer well-established tools, and support steady forward movement toward clearer choices.
