About Bobby
Bobby Hines is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 13 years of experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and LGBT-related concerns. He also supports individuals working through relationship tension and family conflict.
Bobby aims to make sessions simple and direct. He creates a calm space where clients can say what they need to say. Conversations focus on what matters now and on small steps that feel doable.
Background and approach
He draws on several approaches to fit each person's situation, including Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Attachment-Based ideas. Those methods help people notice the stories they tell themselves, clarify values, and improve how they connect with others. In sessions Bobby listens closely and asks questions that help people see different options.
He uses practical exercises and short homework tasks when they make sense. The work is collaborative - clients set goals and pace. People who come to him often want clearer communication, less guilt or shame, or help with control issues and workplace stress.
He also works with loneliness, forgiveness, and problems that hurt day-to-day functioning. Bobby focuses on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Online session options
How narrative and ACT work online
Many clients find Narrative Therapy useful for untangling the stories they tell about themselves. Online sessions let people talk through those stories and test new meanings out loud, which can change how they respond to stress and relationships.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that match those values. In video or phone sessions this becomes practical work: noticing thoughts, practicing acceptance, and planning step-by-step experiments between meetings.
Attachment-based ideas help when connection feels difficult. Conversations explore patterns in relationships and try new ways of reaching out or setting boundaries. Online formats make it easier to work on real-life examples from daily interactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and communication style. That collaboration may shift as progress is made and new priorities appear.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat suits brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
