About Me

Hi All,

My name is Robin. Two things I don’t think I could live without are iced coffee and my cats. My husband and I have a tabby lookalike (Buster) and a tuxedo kitty (Chaplin). We’re pretty proud of the fact that they haven’t electrocuted themselves via Christmas lights over the past 8 years that we’ve had them.   

I have had my own experience with feeling overwhelmed, bogged down and feeling like everything is “extra” as a helping professional. When this happens, it can leave less energy to enjoy your life. Through doing my own work, I’ve learned to disconnect from the craziness.

I love partnering with other helping professionals, including other therapists, teachers, social workers and healthcare professionals that are overwhelmed by all the things that can lead to burnout and compassion fatigue.

If you feel like you’re ready to dive into these parts– your creativity, passion, intuition and unique intelligence in a way that helps you feel better and be more successful in your life, then you’re in good company.

I take a holistic approach to therapy, so we’ll look at all aspects of health– physical, mental, spiritual, social and many more. I also use an approach called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), that focuses on accepting challenges in your life and using your values as a guide for how you will respond to what life has thrown at you. I also like to use some creative approaches such as Sandtray therapy and Reiki.

In my free time, I like to travel, be lazy with my cats, watch thriller movies with my husband, eat really good spicy food (Indian food is my favorite), catch live stand up shows and be outside as much as possible.

The technicalities:

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of combined experience in the mental health and social services field. I’m also a Reiki Practitioner (Level II). If you’re interested, we can look into how spirituality and energy work can compliment your mental health.

Robin is a compassionate therapist who has a wealth of knowledge and experience. As her colleague, I have seen the significant role she’s played in her clients’ transformation and her dedication to her work. Robin is a skilled therapist who I can confidently recommend.
