Hello! I am Robin Glaser and I am an Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina. I have been working in the counseling field for 9 years. I began working after I received my master's in counseling psychology from Loyola University Maryland with some credits from Washington College in 2014. I began working with adults in the private practice setting while also working with children and families as a school based therapist in Baltimore. I transitioned to working in the day treatment setting as a therapist at a day program at Kennedy Krieger Institute for children and families with neurological disabilities while also working for an outpatient clinic with adults part time. I truly enjoyed having my experiences and work with a very wide range while starting my career and gaining much experience with many various patients. I moved to South Carolina in 2018 and transferred my license to the state. I now work for the department of mental health full time as a therapist in an outpatient clinic and for Betterhelp part-time. My counseling approach is very individualized and client-centered. I loved to work with cognitive behavioral strategies, behavioral approaches, trauma informed treatment, solution focused therapy, goal setting, problem solving, and client-centered approaches. My experience includes a wide range of diagnoses and I feel as though I have most experience in anxiety related issues, trauma related disorders, social and relationship problems, depression and mood related concerns, anger management, and working with those with disabilities. I am certified in trauma focused-cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and use this treatment model to help those with trauma related diagnoses. I would like to assist those seeking help by helping empathically and with genuine concern. My strength is in listening to others and helping others based on their own goals and desires. I like to set realistic and attainable goals in the treatment process and develop a plan and use strategies that are helpful and can help us both see growth and progress. My passion is to help those who seek it feel heard and listened to and make progress to end up being who and where they want to be.

I am a licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in South Carolina with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I have worked with teenagers within the criminal justice system and facilitated psycho-education groups with mandated clients suffering from addiction. I later shifted to working with caregivers of and individuals receiving hospice and home health care. I worked with these individuals to prioritize needs, pursue needed resources, engage in long-term care planning, cope with chronic illness, and address dysfunctional family systems. Most recently, I have worked with Veterans' and their families in a health care setting. I have found each of the populations I have worked with engaging and rewarding in their own way. I believe, regardless of age, people are people. While our specific needs and priorities may change throughout our life, we all need unconditional positive regard as a foundation of any healthy supportive relationship. Working with unique and diverse groups has further ingrained in me the numerous systemic barriers that individuals of different ages, genders, religions, races, and sexual orientations face. Programs and services I am most familiar with include, Medicare, Medicaid, Health insurance, In-patient rehabilitation services, Nursing home care, Assisted living, Independent living, In-home care, Home-health, Hospice care, Veteran's benefits administration, Veteran's health administration, Addiction rehabilitation services, SNAP Food Stamps, and Income-based housing. My approach to client care is patient-centered, strength-based, trauma informed, advocacy. Therapeutic interventions and clinical skills I have the most training in include Cognitive behavioral therapy, Suicide prevention, SBIRT, active listening, and motivational interviewing. However, I recognize that trauma and family dynamics impact individuals throughout their life. My clients have described me as approachable, straight forward, non-judgmental, caring, and as a good listener. I am a big believer of practice what you preach. I know from personal experience the amount of courage and resilience it takes to take the first step of recognizing you need support, to finding a counselor that is a good fit, and showing up for yourself in and out of therapy. If you are ready to take that step with me or simply talk about what therapy is like, what to look for, and what your needs are; I am here for you.
