More about Robyn

Hello my name is Robyn Petersen and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Oklahoma. I have provided therapy and case management to clients for 16 years. I have both a Bachelors and Masters degree in Social Work from Missouri State University. I am an Air Force veteran and currently work for the VA serving veterans with Serious Mental Illness. I have experience working in hospice, community mental health, child welfare, and on an inpatient geriatric psychiatric unit
I use a strength-based approach and believe that everyone's journey is different and requires an individual approach.
My therapy style is open and genuine. I believe in treating all clients with respect, dignity and compassion. I prefer to assess for a client's strengths and build upon the tools that a client already has. Clients are more successful when they feel supported and validated by the therapist.
I have experience working with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and family issues, caregiver stress, veteran issues, adjustment disorders, end of life issues, aging and geriatric issues, trauma, dementia including Alzheimer's. I use various types of treatment modalities within the therapeutic setting to include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Taking the first step is always hard let me help guide you on your journey to mental wellness.
Thank you,
Robyn Petersen, MSW, LCSW

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.

She is super helpful! She has helped me come over even my toughest of struggles and truly cares about my concerns. She sees my sides of things and keeps me staying positive.
I have worked with Robyn for about a year and have enjoyed our time together. She has seen me through a lot of transitions, helping me to navigate them and the overwhelm that so much change challenged me with. She was relatable and kind. She is just what I needed.
Robyn is excellent
Couldn’t have been placed with a better match.
She is a great listener and has great insight. I’m glad we met on this site, because I was completely overwhelmed.
Robyn has been exactly what I needed. I feel so much better and my anxiety has practically gone away. I know it’s still a work in progress but I’m so happy god led me to her.
Robyn I'm trying to message you but won't let me it says make a payment I'm trying to inform you I receive sooner care but don't know my medical id number
Good a listening and understanding. Reliable.
Excellent
I love how Robyn shares stories about certain situations or people I am able to resonate with because it helps me to better relate while also giving me hope for a better outcome towards my circumstance. Robyn is such an understanding person and a great listener. She helps me put things into perspective and question old habits, which has been needed. So far I love my experience with BetterHelp and look forward to speaking with Robyn each session.
Robyn has been an amazing benefit to our family. She has provided her expert knowledge and helped guide us to the next step of difficult task ahead of us.
She is amazing!
