It is an evidence-based comprehensive counseling program that incorporates work on drug problems, first designed for adolescents and young adults, and now adapted for adults of all ages. Widely used across the United States, and in Canada and Germany, the program has been implemented in community agencies, residential treatment centers, public and private schools, treatment schools, juvenile justice facilities, and drug courts. Robert works closely with organizations to provide clinical support and oversight.

He is regularly called for comments and interviews, and has appeared on Oprah, The Today Show, The CBS Early Show, CNN and other national media.

In his career, Robert directed publicly funded agencies that provide prevention and counseling services, and maintained a private practice for many years. Currently he works on program development; provides lectures and workshops; and has a special interest in promoting progressive public policy and social justice in his professional work.
