Hi! I am a licensed clinical social worker licensed in New York and Massachusetts with experience working in outpatient clinics and not for profit programs providing counseling services to children, adolescents and adults . I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship issues, parenting problems and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is open, reflective, warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, polyvagal, internal family systems and solution focused therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change and a healthier life. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Robbie is attentive and caring. She asks a lot of questions and not only listens to everything I say, but reads my journal entries and follows up with me about them. She clearly is very knowledgeable and I feel in good hands with her.
