About Me
My name is Dontavius Robinson and I am Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Oklahoma. I graduated from Langston University where I graduated with a bachelors in psychology in 2014 and masters in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling (LPC tract) . I started out working as a case manager and behavior rehabilitation specialist for three years, where I worked with individuals of all ages ranging from 4-55 years of age. As a behavior rehab, I taught my clients skills that were not only behavior based but I also taught them life skills for a number of different practical applications. I practiced as a BRS until I completed my masters and begun seeing clients while under-supervision for my LPC license. During that time I worked with children and families that were in DHS and drug court. I did the bulk of my work with foster families in the beginning of most of cases until the biological parents have been granted custody and at that point we continue to work on those families healing from custody trauma and strengthening family connections. Right now I am currently working as a contract therapist at an agency in Oklahoma City and as a school counselor for a public school in the metro area. With my background being in vocational rehabilitation, I consider that experience as a extension to my practice allowing me to take things like work and disability into my practice as well. As a therapist I treat all my clients issues based on a their particular needs and try to see them as an individual. My approach is more of that of an eclectic approach, which is a multi-theory approach.

Dontavius is my first and only therapist here. He’s been a perfect match for me. He’s knowledgeable about Buddhism, and his advice applies directly with my beliefs and mindset. He’s a great guy and I enjoy talking with him a lot, I look forward to it every week. He suggested me one of the best books I’ve ever read as well. I’m looking forward to continuing our therapy together. 10/10 would recommend this dude right here.
Working with Dontavius is a great experience for me, he listens attentively, is flexible when I want to focus on a different topic for a session and is very supportive!
I have been to therapy for years and have had different therapists. Out of all of them, I can confidently say Donatavius has been the most helpful. He’s extremely compassionate and knows how to work with your personality. He also provides great resources for you. In my opinion, he’s the epitome of what all mental health professionals should strive to be.
Dontavius has been amazing! He has great insights and understands me and what I am going through.
My therapist was great. Very understanding. Organised. He gave clear goals that helped me to aim to improving my mental health. Highly recommended.
Good listeners , you feel comfortable talking to him
Dontavius is an impressive listener. He has a way to connect things and understand people fully. He speaks really nicely as well. I am happy I got matched with him
He’s very professional and listens carefully. 45 minutes of counseling are well used and he will keep you busy in between sessions as well. Strongly recommend ! :)
Dontavius has a fantastic ability to focus right down to the important stuff. He’s insightful, smart, and understanding. I’m super impressed with him.
simply his the best therapist I`ve been working with
I would like to thank Dontavius for everything he does. Ever since I started the counselling with him, I feel much lighter & brighter. I am not the kind of person who is constantly sharing good news or bad news with people, I resist my emotions, but having a person from outside the circle from a new point of view, truly helped! In the 6 months I have worked with him, I have thought of him as an older brother, a confidant, a friend and as a mentor. From not having a job to now being busy with my new work, it has truly taken heaps of effort on both sides to make it all happen! I couldn't have imagined getting out of the misery without Dontavius's support. You are marvelous! Thank you :)
He is extremely professional and helpful!
Dontavius is insightful in his feedback and provides great material to work through and reframe your thinking to help you be the person you want to be. 11/10

I really like Dontavius approach. He is very understanding, knows when to listen, when to talk, and is very engaging in exercises and material that we do in session as well as by myself. I am very happy and recommend him.
Amazing listener. Really helping me to uncover truths about myself . Couldn't be more grateful .
Dontavius is a great therapist who listen to you, target your goals, work on a plan to help you be a better version of yourself. His method is structured and I don't feel like I am wasting my time. I ve been learning a lot in only 2 sessions with him and I see the path he is leading me to. It feels really good to be supported. I recommend him 200%.
Positive, relaxed manner, seems genuinely willing to help, all round good guy - would recommend.
Dontavius is incredible! He does more than just listening and giving you advice, he even has a schedule timeline of progresss to help me tackle the issues and stay on track. I am super busy with work and yet he constantly follow up and care about me even when I didn’t response or have the time finish the worksheet that he gave me. the amount of care and detail of his work is incredible! Thank you!

Dontavius is a genius - He identifies issues I didn't even realize and we are working through successfully to a better life, one where I'm in control.
Dontavius is humble and kind to understand uniqueness of anyone's issue...I have sessions with him for last 2 months and I am already healing from my past.
Dontavius has been a great listener, empathetic towards me and understanding my needs, helping me see things in a positive way and always responding in a timely, professional manner.

I feel like Dontavius is really searching for the root of my issues and doesn’t just take them at face value. He dives deep into what might really be going on.
In a short time I have already benefited greatly from speaking with Dontavius. He is a great listener and has a friendly and helpful approach. I look forward weekly to speaking with him as it positively impacts my whole week and I can notice small improvements day by day.
Dontavius has been the best help I've had in so many years. I thank him for being patient with me and helping me with my issues.
