Hey there, I am Anissa Robinson, LMFT. I truly enjoy hearing everyone's stories and how our core beliefs drive our behaviors. Challenging these beliefs in combination with humor and strong rapport is my thing, let's see if we are a good fit. Most commonly I use CBT and DBT they are like sister modalities. When we can build some rapport, we can also get down to the trauma portion which could be where the issues stem from. I like to begin fairly warm and can be quite direct once rapport is built and you can handle someone sharing " Is this getting you closer, or farther from your long-term goals?"

We can all use some support at some point in our lives. Whether we are going through a life transition, experiencing the loss of something meaningful to us, or simply feeling stagnant in life, just to name a few. Sometimes, the hardest part is recognizing we need support or realizing that it is okay not to do it alone. If you are reading this, you are likely contemplating getting that support or may be ready to start that journey! Either way, it is the first step. That is great! My goal as a therapist is to assist the person, I am working with to navigate emotions or behaviors that they may want to better understand or change.

Never before have children, adolescents, and young adults in the education system been more challenged. High-stakes standardized testing and the one size fits all approach to education have caused some of the most resilient students to become stressed and/or fall behind. Students who have disabilities are often overlooked or given the incorrect interventions, causing them to fall further behind. I offer comprehensive evaluations that not only determine if a child qualifies for special education but also by finding each child's unique strengths and weaknesses we are able to match the interventions to the child's unique needs.

I work with people in the context of their relationships. All the problems that drive people to seek therapy are sourced in their relationships. In the business of therapy, the cause is the cure. The primary relationships, past and current, that fail to provide adequate nourishment is the cause and exacerbates the stress and pain they're struggling with. When your primary relationships work better and provide adequate nourishment, everything changes. You probably won't need therapy anymore when the level of your pain and stress drops substantially.

Let me help you "Design Your Life!" We tend to design certain parts of our lives, maybe where we're going to live, or what kind of job we want to have. But when it comes to the most important things: relationships, marriages, parenting, and our own happiness, we often tend to just land where we land. Then we wonder why we are not happy or why things are not working out the way we had hoped. My goal is to help you get in the "driver's seat" of your life, to find true fulfillment, to "Design Your Life."
