More about Robert

- LMHC
I am licensed in Washington with 20 + years of professional work experience.
I assist those who have become aware that the story they are currently living is no longer serving them well. Together we will create a therapeutic environment that cultivates this initial awareness. Through the application of evidence based therapies, compassionate boundaries and a mind/body integrative approach, we work to resolve the past dysfunctional or traumatic parts of your story.
Applying a mindfulness approach and cognitive based therapies such as CBT, motivational interviewing, movement, somatic therapies and family systems, we may bring an increased awareness and balance to our mind/body.
Aligning ourselves with our spiritual center, we may create a new intentional, energetic story that allows healing and cultivates the possibility and choice for wellbeing. I further offer nature therapy and grounding/yogic guidance.
I will aid you in identifying symptoms of discomfort and disconnection, common in overstressed, underachieved lifestyles that may invoke self injury, self denial or self harm. Together we will develop a compassionate wellness plan that allows you to safely transition from this undesirable, self-concealing storyline, to one of presence and possibility.
My path as a therapist has paralleled my healing journey from a temporary paralysis associated with Guillain-Barre’ syndrome and continues with my practice as an LMHC in WA , and my creative work as a musician.
I practice with the belief that you can resolve your dysfunctional story and with (y)our applied awareness/creativity, you may author a new, intentional story of health and happiness.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, moderate depression, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, career difficulties, & coping with life changes. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

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.
