About Bobbi
Bobbi Cleary is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings 13 years of experience to her counseling work. She frames mental and emotional wellness as part of whole-person health and aims to help people find practical tools that make everyday life easier.
She adapts her style to each person's needs rather than using a single method for everyone. Her approach draws on a mix of reflective listening, cognitive-behavioral ideas, mindfulness, and self-compassion practices. She also uses self-regulation techniques and elements of the Gottman approach when they fit a person's goals.
Bobbi has a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Alaska Pacific University and a Bachelor of Arts in Japanese Studies with a French minor from the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Her work history includes psychiatric inpatient and residential settings, where she led group and individual sessions, intake assessments, and family-focused care, as well as outpatient agencies and private practice.
In sessions she focuses on building a supportive connection first. That connection becomes the place to try new skills for managing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, anger, self-esteem, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also addresses parenting, career questions, bipolar mood concerns, and LGBT-related issues.
Her style is practical and person-centered. She helps people learn tools, practice them in real life, and adjust strategies when needed. Readers are encouraged to confirm current session options before booking.
