Hello! I’m Dr. Robin Akdeniz. I am here to listen to you and to hear you, to explore your understanding of what is troubling you or getting in your way, with care, compassion, respect, and without judgment. Whether it is something you experience in relationship with yourself or with an emotion, with a partner, with family members or friends, at work or school, we will work together to help create shifts and to co-create ways to help you move forward toward solutions. With my education and experience as both a licensed clinical social worker and a licensed marriage and family therapist, I work from a systemic and relational lens.

Considering each person's uniqueness, the approach to working with you will be designed specifically to meet your unique needs and desires within your context. Our sessions can be individual or with others, depending on what is most useful for you in the moment. My solution-oriented relational approach incorporates mindfulness and utilizes your unique gifts, strengths, resources, resiliencies, special qualities, and talents to open space for possibilities to emerge so we can co-construct your desired future. I invite you to contact me for a consultation, for talk therapy and/or for hypnotherapy.

I hold a BA in psychology with a minor in children's studies and a master's degree in social work. I was licensed as a clinical social worker in Florida in 2020. I earned my doctorate in social work at Walden University. I have worked in various settings including foster care, jails, and schools. My counseling style is laid-back and conversational. I believe in creating safe and open spaces for people to be themselves and share their truths. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and attachment counseling. I will tailor the treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

I love working with clients who are willing and eager to engage in learning and exploration of the self to promote growth, healing, recovery, and quality of life. Serving clients of all ages, we offer a broad platform of support to make it possible to access services in a way that is safe, gentle, and compassionate. Younger children may enjoy incorporating games and puppets into care while older youth may benefit from creative activities, exploration of media, or collaborative projects. Clients of all ages may benefit from support through bibliotherapy, hypnosis, or NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming).

Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts. i have dual licenses in MA and FL. I received my CAGS from Cambridge College and my Master Degree from AMC. I have been practicing for 27 years. I help children, adolescents, young adults and families struggling with eating disorders, grief, adoption trauma and parenting difficulties to become the best versions of themselves and keep working to have their life improve. I also work with one time consults. We all need a safe place to vent, a sounding board or someone to answer some questions. Whether you are looking for ongoing therapy or a one time consult, you are always in the driver´s seat.
