About Onessa
Onessa Robertson uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people face stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship strain. She is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience. Her style is flexible and grounded in real-life change.
Onessa aims to help people make sense of painful experiences and move toward what matters to them. Sessions focus on clear steps and useful skills rather than jargon.
Background and approach
She helps people notice patterns, test small changes, and build new ways of relating to themselves and others. Her work covers trauma and abuse, depression, coping with life changes, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges. Relationship issues such as communication problems, infidelity, commitment questions, and divorce or separation are also part of her focus.
She draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Client-Centered Therapy, and the Gottman Method. These are mixed to match each person's goals and pace. Onessa has provided services both locally and internationally over her career.
She helps people work through family of origin concerns, codependency, control issues, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. Many come for practical tools and steady support while they make changes. Her sessions aim to be collaborative.
She encourages people to set goals, try new behaviors between sessions, and notice what helps. The focus is on progress you can use in everyday life.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online delivery that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and making life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and anger. The Gottman Method focuses on relationship habits, communication skills, and rebuilding trust, which can help with conflict, infidelity, and commitment questions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then pick techniques that fit. Sessions are adjusted over time based on what works for the individual.
Online therapy offers real flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever they are, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat and text-based messaging allow short check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while still using ACT, CBT, Gottman techniques, and motivational interviewing in everyday practice.
