Over the past eight years I have worked in the mental health field in a variety of capacities, including inpatient units, residential facilities, and day treatment settings. My experience and training with children, adults, and families in these settings has given me a practical knowledge and understanding when working alongside my clients to facilitate change. A significant part of my experience has been working with adults and children coping with past trauma to safely express their anger, manage their depression, and navigate difficult life events.

Robin believes people are hurting, are worthy of respect, and are doing their best to navigate life. She offers individual and group sessions which use an “all hands on deck” approach and focus on mindfulness, positive regard for self and others, value identification, boundary setting, honesty in recovery, and community building.

I know from my own experience how difficult it is to take the first step toward getting help. Once you've done that, you must face the difficult task of choosing a therapist. This is a very important and personal decision since the success of treatment is dependent on the client/therapist relationship. I believe the therapist/client relationship should be a collaborative one where we work as a team toward your goals.

Are you a young adult woman feeling stuck by anxiety, fear, worry, stress, negative self-talk, or self-doubt? Do you often feel you need to please others and put your wants and needs to the side? Maybe you feel overwhelmed and exhausted by responsibilities and expectations and have difficulty coping with it all. Your world is full of changes and challenges, and even the good ones can be stressful or scary. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. The good news is: it's possible to find relief. Together, we can help you calm your mind, feel more confident, have better relationships, and live the life you want and deserve.

I am a Master's level psychotherapist with experience conducting group, individual and family therapy. I have worked with families, at risk youth, juvenile sex offenders and youth in "out of home placements". My approach to therapy has an emphasis on providing my clients with a safe, judgment free environment to work on uncovering their best self. I strive to help individuals who struggle with interpersonal skills, assertiveness, adjustment disorders, anxiety and depression. I know the difficulty and cultural insensitivity people of color can sometimes encounter, when navigating health systems and would like to offer an alternative.

I am a therapist with a deep passion to help children, adolescents, and adults who suffer with different behavioral and mental health issues. My therapeutic approach will always remain collaborative. Therefore, whether you are struggling with anxiety or depression, low self-esteem or stress management issues, I will take the time to listen to your problems and we will work together to create your own personal story of change toward a better life.

I am dedicated to the preservation of the family and eclectic in my approach to treatment, working to help families and individuals return to normalcy through individual, family and marital therapy. I believe in doing a comprehensive initial evaluation in order to best identify sources of emotional distress as well as psychological issues in play which may be interfering with the individual's optimal functioning.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in individual and couples therapy exclusively at my private practice, Two Willows Counseling, in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. Among my areas of expertise are eating disorders, mood disorders and trauma.

In the demanding, hectic world that we live in, the first thing we tend to sacrifice is self-care. I am passionate about helping individuals reprioritize themselves and discover healthy ways to cope with the more difficult aspects of life, as well as help them discover the importance of developing connection between the body and mind for overall wellness. I work hard to create a safe, welcoming environment for my clients so that they may gain valuable insight, motivation, and confidence to achieve their goals and live their best lives.

Your life is significant and holds remarkable worth. It is my mission to join alongside you to develop an acute sense of purpose, emotional freedom, and psychospiritual wholeness. Together, we will explore your psychosocial history and presenting circumstances and will collaboratively determine the most effective treatment interventions that best cater to your unique story, needs, and goals. I also incorporate a multi-systemic framework, helping you identify how your various systems (family, friends, work, school, and community) each relate to and impact your current situation.

I approach therapy with the belief that the individual is more than the difficulties they are currently experiencing. I evaluate what clients want out of therapy, what meaning they make of their current difficulties and how these concerns manifest themselves. I work in a collaborative, strengths-based manner. I understand the desire for immediate relief of the difficulties that brings someone to therapy, while also bringing an openness to exploring the factors that contributed to the development of these difficulties. My approach is predominately psychodynamic, drawing from relational, systems, and gender-sensitive approaches.

I work with empowering people to be the best they can be. I work with identify your personal resources and move towards developing a plan to commit to your growth, development and self care. It's all about moving forward!

I believe that difficulties develop within relational contexts influenced by early relationships and current interactions. Good treatment is goal focused, and based on the here-and-now distress that brings you to treatment while also being curious about how the present is influenced by the past. Treatment must occur within a safe professional relationship. In my work, the therapeutic relationship is an important part of the healing process. Through on-going conversations and shared curiosity my clients and I broaden our understanding of their current distress and future aspirations. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

Life can throw us some difficult issues, and at times, we may have feelings of anxiety, hopelessness, fear, or depression. Are you in a transition of some kind, or have been recently? Join me in my safe space to talk about your issues, at your pace. As an experienced counselor working from a strength-based approach, I bring empathy and insight into our time together.

Are you coming up with more questions than answers? Maybe you've been through medication management and therapy but don't feel like you are getting very far. Some wonder if they have the right diagnosis and perhaps reassessing the diagnosis, getting clarity on what is going on, is a good place to pick up to help form a more effective plan. Common questions include wondering if there's a personality disorder, different mood or anxiety disorder, developmental disorder or ADHD.
