About me
Hi there, I'm Robyn. Are you feeling overwhelmed and stressed with life transitions or the pressure of daily life? Do you find it challenging to set healthy boundaries in relationships, both personal and work? Do you find yourself constantly ending up in toxic relationships? Are you finding yourself less satisfied, fulfilled and feeling anxious or depressed? I help people learn how to better understand the unhealthy dynamics of their relationships as well as navigate life stressors to develop better relationships and enhance life satisfaction. I will also provide skills and tools for managing anxiety or depression. I play an active role in the therapeutic process and we will work together to identify what's working and what's not working and work to bring back balance and satisfaction. My communication style is calm, warm and empathic and my goal is to create a safe and supportive space for you to feel comfortable sharing and being open.

My treatment methods
Psychodynamic
I was originally trained as a psychodynamic therapist and as such, I aim to help clients identify lifelong patterns in order to gain awareness and understanding of important pieces of the puzzle that make them who they are. We will work together to rearrange these pieces in ways that allow the client to form a more functional and positive sense of themself.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I think it is also very important to focus on how you are functioning and coping in the present. I will play an active role during sessions of helping you to identify issues, develop alternate and more effective problem solving skills and set clear and specific action steps as way of moving you towards your goals. I will provide clear and specific tools that you can use as you move through treatment.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I find CBT to be a very helpful treatment method for both anxiety and depression that works to help you identify unhealthy thought patterns. I will help you to udnerstand the connection between thoughts, feelings and behaviors and we will work together to practice thought stopping and reframing these thoughts.

On our first meet I felt very heard and like she understood me. She did a great job at navigating our conversation and asked a lot of important questions. I’m hopeful for our time together moving forward and grateful to have booked her.
