Hi, I'm Robin! I help individuals and couples break painful patterns rooted in anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship disconnection. Whether you’re facing life challenges, relationship conflict, ongoing issues with anxiety or low self-esteem, I use a variety of modalities to support healing, emotional safety, and deeper connection. I also work with LGBTQIA+ & Ethical Non-Monogamy community. My care is warm, direct, and non-judgmental. I am trained in (EFT) Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, completed a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Competency Course, and more recently enrolled in the Somatic Trauma Therapy Certificate Course. I am also a certified yoga teacher (2008) and will integrate that into sessions at times. I love connecting the body and mind.

Therapist

I’m a naturally curious, growth-oriented human who believes healing happens when insight meets action. I love helping people zoom out to see the bigger picture of their lives—while also gently zooming in on the patterns, habits, and beliefs that shape their everyday experience.

I’m drawn to the intersection of self-awareness and real-world momentum. Therapy with me is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded. We can explore the deep stuff—identity, relationships, purpose, transitions—while also building practical tools you can actually use on a Tuesday afternoon when life is lifing.

I value emotional honesty, nervous system regulation, and sustainable growth over quick fixes. I believe you’re not broken—you’re adaptive. Together, we figure out what’s working, what’s outdated, and how to move forward in a way that feels aligned, empowered, and authentically you.

Expect warmth, insight, humor when it fits, and a space where all parts of you are welcome. Healing doesn’t have to be clinical and cold—it can be connected, intentional, and even a little energizing.
