My name is Robin I completed my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at California University, Master's degree from Webster University in Clinical Counseling, and Bachelor's degree from Rollins College in Psychology. I am a licensed mental health counselor in private practice in Florida. I completed my internship providing psychological services for teens and young mothers in a pregnancy program, as well as working as a substance abuse counselor with adults. Upon completion of my Master's, I went straight into private practice. I am a former high school psychology teacher. I serve as a psychology and counseling adjunct professor at Eastern Florida State College and at South College. My area of focus in my practice is on anxiety and depression. I work mainly with people who are feeling stuck and have a negative outlook on life. My goal is helping people gain clarity in their situation and build the skills to find meaning and purpose in their lives. I use an eclectic approach to therapy. With a mix of CBT to challenge many of those illogical racing thoughts that plague many people with a mix of mindfulness activities, I find my clients do very well with these two modalities. I take each client as a very unique individual so once we meet I can get a better idea of what the client may need as far as treatment approaches. There is nothing more rewarding than guiding someone through their journey into wellness!

Do you find yourself struggling with navigating the challenges of life with the need to escape? Addiction and avoidance are two very common mechanisms used in today’s world to deal with the crushing weight of life. Trust me, I get it. I have walked my own journey out of addiction into sobriety. It is a lifelong process that I embrace. It’s not just about breaking free from substances, but also achieving emotional sobriety. Time is a luxury many of us don’t feel that we have and we are constantly looking for the “quick fix,” but life has other plans. If you are looking beyond a “band aid solution” to living a better life today you’ve come to the right place. I’ve been there. I may be a therapist, but I’m a human first. A person just like you. Would you like to accept the invitation to enter into this journey of healing together? To go from surviving to learning how to thrive? To learn to unapologetically love yourself again, or maybe for the first time ever? You’re worth it. It’s your time to make yourself a priority. I love working with people that are sick and tired of being sick and tired. The people that are ready to come in and take the mask off to embrace the healing process. Empowering people to be the best version of themselves is my primary focus. I may be the professional in the therapeutic relationship, but you are the expert. This is your life; it’s time to start living.
