More about Robert
- 40 years' experience
- Male
- Psychologist
I'm a therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions and struggles. Throughout my career, I've worked with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and the complexities of major life changes.
My areas of focus include isolation and loneliness, social anxiety, trauma recovery, divorce and separation, caregiver stress, workplace challenges, midlife transitions, military and veteran issues, natural disasters and crises, blended family dynamics, aging concerns, family-of-origin work, fatherhood, and first responder experiences.
I bring a deep understanding of the unique struggles that come with aging, loss, and life's pivotal moments. I'm particularly skilled at helping older adults and those facing significant life transitions find meaning, connection, and resilience during difficult times.
My approach is grounded in empathy and genuine human connection. I believe in meeting you where you are and working collaboratively toward the changes you seek. I'm honored to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
