I am a National Certified Counselor in the states of Florida (LMHC), Virginia (LPC) and Arizona (LPC) with more than five years of professional work experience. I am also a Board Certified Telemental Health Provider. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, and depression. I use CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and client centered approaches to help individuals learn the skills they need to manage symptoms and cope effectively, so they can have a fulfilling life. I also incorporate spiritual practices, such a reading scripture and prayer, for those clients who request it. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I am direct in my approach and use "truth in love" as a guide when working with clients. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

She listens-- like really listens even in the silence of what is inferred and she responds with so much care and expertise. It helps to open you up so that you can get the care needed. Best therapist I've ever spoken to. I'm so grateful that she's so relatable and easy to talk to.

I’ve had two sessions thus far with Dr.Robinson. I see the value in therapy for the first time in my adult life. It’s been such a pleasure working with her.

Dr. Robinson is amazing! She has helped me understanding my lack of boundaries and has encouraged me in so many ways. I am now confident in setting and keeping boundaries! This has lead to far less anxiety and feelings of hopelessness.

I have only had one visit with Dr Robinson and it was more like an intake so we haven’t really had a chance to dive into things but so far I am happy with the support she is providing. I am appreciative of the resources sent to help me start my growth

My first session with Dr. Robinson was great. I feel like I can learn new strategies to cope with my anxiety better after one session. She reaffirmed me and I felt empowered to face my challenges with the tools she provided during our session. I booked my next session with her after logging off our first one. I appreciate her expertise and her wisdom on being a black woman in education. Highly recommended.

Dr. Robinson is an exceptional therapist and I'm so glad I was matched with her on BetterHelp. From our very first session, she created a welcoming and comfortable space where I felt heard and understood. She's not only a great listener but also incredibly helpful, providing me with actionable steps and practical strategies to work on between sessions. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a supportive and effective therapist.

Dr. Robinson is a great listener and gives me many tools to work on to help regulate my feelings. She is patient and understanding. She makes you feel very comfortable and seen. By my second time meeting with her I felt so at peace talking to her that I opened up to her like I never have before and released so much that had been on my mind. Can’t wait to continue on this healing journey with her.

Dr Robinson is a great listener, helped me dismantle the seemingly insurmountable wall I was facing, and helped me to work it brick by brick while kindly but firmly making sure I spoke words of affirmation about myself

I love the fact that Dr. Robinson checks on me periodically in between sessions. She demonstrates that she cares for her client and is passionate about her work. She is very professional and provides weekly worksheets. Since, I have started working with her the past few weeks, I can feel the shift in my confidence, perspective on core values and relationships. I am thankful to “Better Help” and thankful to Dr. Robinson.
