Whether you are seeking therapy for the first time, or looking for a new counselor that better suits your needs, you’ve come to the right place.

Greetings! My name is Rob Morrison and I am a clinical psychologist with over 20 years of professional experience and training. I graduated with a BA in Psychology from the University of Delaware in 1984, and from the Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology in 1996 with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I am also the director of services for Blue Skies Psychological Services, P.C.; a group practice offering counseling, psychiatric services, medication assisted therapy, and psychological assessments.

I believe that treatment works best when it is tailored to the personality and individual needs of each client. Rather than relying on one theoretical perspective, I use a multi-modal approach, utilizing interpersonal, behavioral, and solution-focused techniques. I have extensive experience dealing with a variety of psychological problems, including depression, anxiety, as well as work-related, phase of life, marital, and family issues. In addition, I specialize in focusing on parenting concerns, divorce issues, infertility issues, and dealing with special needs children. I provide individual, couple, family, and group counseling for adults

Dedication, education and experience are the qualities that will contribute to an active exploration of your unconscious and conscious mind in a safe and secure analytical framework. This therapeutic process is thrilling as one hears, listens and gains conscious knowledge of the wisdom of the unconscious. Psychoanalytical psychotherapy requires commitment, time, and an over riding desire for wellness. It does not promise a false, temporary relief, a quick fix, and/or health gained by following a therapist's directives under the false premise that others have the answers. The unconscious owns the answers and wellness.

Over the past 30+ years, I have treated the varied emotional problems of several diverse generations. Those clients who worked hard and gave significant time to the treatment were all, for the most part,able to put their relationships in order and further enhance them as well as becoming rather successful in their work. My mentor, an analysand of Erich Fromm, told me long ago that "each person has his/her own poetry." My job was to let it unfold. It all sounded very lofty but time revealed that this was the way.
