I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Phoenix. I
work with children, adolescents, and adults in
English or in Spanish.
I believe therapy works best when it feels like a
partnership — we'll work together to understand
what's going on, identify what's getting in the way,
and find practical tools that help you move
forward. Whether you're dealing with anxiety,
depression, stress, life changes, or the effects of
past experiences, my goal is to help you build
confidence and strengthen coping skills.
I've worked in inpatient, outpatient, and nonprofit
settings, and I especially enjoy working with
children and adolescents. My hope is that therapy
feels like a place where you can show up as you
are and leave each session with something
meaningful to take with you.

I support individuals who are struggling with poor performance at work/school, anxious thoughts, panic attacks, depressed mood, occupational burnout, and other related conditions.
You're in the right place if:
✓ You're constantly overwhelmed or stressed about upcoming events or tasks needing to be completed

Are you ready to be happy, content and in love with yourself? I am here to help you achieve your goals as a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have a bachelors degree in Kinesiology, of which is the study of human movement (sports medicine) from the University of Washington. I also have a Masters degree in Psychology from Antioch University Seattle, WA. My additional credentials include the following: certified clinical supervisor, minority mental health specialist, and certified grief recovery counselor. I’m passionate about providing quality mental health care to my clients.
Since many clients feel a sense of "disloyalty" when seeking help for family issues, include a line like: "Seeking support isn't about being 'disloyal'—it's about being healthy." Do you feel like you’re "managing" your parent instead of having a relationship with them? Body: For many adult children of narcissistic parents, every phone call feels like a tactical mission. You’re constantly scanning for "mood shifts," choosing your words with extreme caution, and dealing with a hangover of guilt long after the conversation ends. It’s exhausting to be the only one trying to keep the peace. I help clients move out of "survival mode" and into a place of emotional autonomy.
With 34 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I've walked alongside people through some of the heaviest chapters of life — chronic illness, grief, trauma, and the kind of relationship pain that makes you question your own judgment. I earned my MSW at the University of Michigan and have spent three decades learning what actually helps people move forward.
I work exclusively via telehealth for adults and older adults in Michigan and Arizona. One thing I want you to know: I will never use AI to record our sessions. What you share with me stays between us.
A former client described working with me as "the right mix of supportive and challenging." I think that's what honest, effective therapy looks like — not just validation, but real engagement with where you want to go.
Hello! I am Robert Williams, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I have been working with adults and young adults in addressing Trauma Recovery, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Self Esteem, LGBTQ+ and Men's Issues for 18+ years. I help individuals navigate their emotional struggles with compassionate, evidence-based therapy.
I believe in the inherent worth, value and dignity of every person. I started my practice because finding meaning in this life is often deeply difficult and all of us need help from time to time to stay connected to that meaning.
