I'm Robert, and I am a therapist licensed in South Carolina and West Virginia with many years of professional clinical experience involving children, adolescents and adults. I am very familiar in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, trauma/abuse & adverse experiences recovery and restoration, PTSD, phobias, grief, ADHD, parent behavioral training, motivation, worry, self esteem, and much more. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor your experience to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process! Many clients have told me that I become quickly familiar, with a direct but laid-back, humorous and easy to interact with personality.
In therapy, you'll be learning about YOU! A lot. Past, present, future. That's actually why this whole thing is going to work. You probably won't actually realize it's been like an hour when we talk, but probably will realize you learned new things between each session. Therapy can sometimes be mentally, emotionally and physically tiring, as well as energizing; but usually those are good signs of accomplishment! You know yourself the best, and are always in control of your treatment, and I respect that.
