Laurie M. Robbins LCSW, SEP

I bring to each session a curious, nonjudgmental perspective so that you can have the compassionate and safe space to restore your sense of self. The goal is not just to relieve suffering. The goal is to foster your sense of resiliency and a capacity for joy.

Career

In a counseling career that spans more than 2 decades, I have conducted thousands of sessions with individuals and families struggling with a vast array of issues. These include anxiety, attachment wounds, grief, traumatic stress (PTSD, recent traumatic events, and relational traumas) and mood disorders.

I have always been dedicated to providing my clients with the highest standard of care. Because of this, I continually strive to gain the training and experience in evidence-based treatment modalities.
