My personal approach:
I especially respect the individual uniqueness of each person who becomes my client. There are no clones in my office. My expectations for you are not based on standardized universal norms for what to think, what to do, and how to feel. With respect and honoring your unique situation I work with clients to better understand areas of their own life situation and set their own personal goals for change. We will explore things that are holding you back and discover your own strengths and resources to help make the change.
If you are looking for extra support while faced with a challenging situation and you are ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
Additional areas of focus:Aging and geriatric issues, Communication problems, Control issues, Divorce and separation, Emptiness, Family of origin issues, Fatherhood issues, First responder issues, Forgiveness, Guilt and shame, Hospice and end-of-life counseling, Impulsivity, Isolation / loneliness, Jealousy, Life purpose, Men's issues, Midlife crisis, Veteran and Armed Forces Issues, Money and financial issues, Panic disorder and panic attacks, Phobias, Post-traumatic stress, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), Social anxiety and phobia, Workplace issues
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Robert Mapes. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Great listener, very calm character, it helps me be open. Offers the right council for my personal beliefs. Thank you Dr. Mapes.

I am honestly way better now thanks to Dr. Mapes. Life will not always go the way we want it to be, but Dr. Mapes helped me to navigate these difficulties with strategies that work well with me. He knows that I follow and believe evidence-based practices, and so he used that understanding of me to help me reach my goals.

I’ve been working with Dr. Mapes for about a year now. He is kind, compassionate and nonjudgmental. He reviews my case notes so he always remembers what’s current with me in my life. I always appreciate his support and will continue working with him on a preventative (rather than corrective) basis.

Cool guy, offers good perspectives, and what sounds like good advice. With that being said, I have yet to apply what we've talked about, as I am spending the summer in a new city away from the usual distractions and tribulations of my life, and the help I was seeking revolved changing my habits that stem from college and being involved in that lifestyle. So we'll see how well his advice translates once I move back to my normal residence and lifestyle

I think Dr. Mapes is amazing. This past week we had been talking back-and-forth through the app and he has made me feel very comfortable. He responds in a timely manner even though I know I’m not his only patient he makes fourth effort to respond to me. Regardless, he seems to understand my situation and what it is, I’m going through, we had our first session last week and I think it went well. I highly recommend Dr. mates to anybody who asked me for therapist in better health is a good idea I could’ve chose a better place to go to.

He’s a great therapist for people with autism he was able to keep my attention based off fixations and had really good advise for anger/depression/anxiety, unfortunately that being said I do have adhd and with that I need somebody a little more energetic perhaps younger because while he was able to keep my attention it started to ween near the end
