Meet Robert

I believe that therapy is, in short, workshopping the relationship between one's physiological experience, one's intellectual or spiritual experience, and one's environment. My specialties include working with youth and adolescents, people with developmental disabilities in supported living settings, and those experiencing chronic severe mental health issues and homelessness, as well as those with mild to moderate anxiety and depression. There is no manual that we are given to work out how these experiences interact with each other, and it is important to have a safe, competent space to explore where these relationships are causing friction. I've been working in the mental health field for 17 years, with 7 years as a Clinical Social Worker and 4 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Through that experience, I've developed a collaborative approach that revolves around you as the expert of your experience. My role in therapy is to help you understand what is happening in your body, add knowledge and tools to your experience, and explore how to put those tools to work to achieve relief and success.

My role is to help you understand what is happening in your body, add knowledge and tools, and help you explore how to put your experience to work with those tools to experience relief and success.
