Dr. William Robison, Psychologist
About me
I consider myself an optimist and seek to find the best in the people I meet. I have an out-going nature. I love people and I love life and seek to help others find the same joy, even in bleak circumstances. When asked to help, I pitch in. I dislike saying “no” and would rather say “yes” to tasks and assignments. I think of myself as a “can do person” and am always looking for how good things can be made to happen. Finally, I would like to note that I can be comfortable in most environments, working with most age groups and mental health conditions. I began my professional career some 30 years ago. In additional to my Psychology Doctoral degree, I also hold a Master of Divinity degree and a Post-degree Certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy.

Very understanding and easy to talk to. Makes conversations relatable and gives a comfortable environment for emotions. I would especially recommend him for anyone struggling with self-identity/care or dealing with loss. Thank you for your help Dr. Robinson.
