About Robin
Robin is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, who has practiced since 2009 and holds a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, credential in California as well. She spent years working in a community behavioral health center and as an in-home parent educator for a university nurturing program. That background shaped her interest in strengths-based work and in helping people notice abilities they already have.
Her approach is client-centered and practical. Robin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people break down problems, test small changes, and build routines that reduce stress. She adapts techniques to what each person needs rather than following a rigid script.
Sessions are conversational. Robin helps clients identify goals, try short experiments between appointments, and reflect on what works. She emphasizes simple tools that can ease panic, lift mood, and make day-to-day coping feel more manageable.
Robin works from Florida and provides services in English. If someone is ready to start, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their availability.
How Robin’s approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities. The therapist follows the client's lead, helps clarify goals, and supports the person in finding their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety, panic, and low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes short-term goals and small changes that add up to noticeable improvements.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Robin will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then use one or a mix of these methods to match what feels most helpful. The process is collaborative and flexible so the plan can change as progress is made.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are set by the therapist's practice. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people try exercises and tracking tools between meetings so progress can be reviewed week to week.
