Robin Gardner

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • West Babylon, NY


I’ve been helping people for over 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m so proud of you for taking this important step toward caring for yourself. It’s not always easy, and it shows strength and courage.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, addressing a wide range of challenges. My experience includes school settings, college multicultural affairs, outpatient drug and alcohol treatment, and mental health counseling.

I also spent nine years in a hospital setting, working in psychiatric emergency services and on adolescent and adult inpatient units. This gave me extensive experience in crisis intervention and in supporting people through both mild and severe mental health concerns. Today, I continue to work in outpatient mental health, helping clients navigate life’s challenges and build resilience.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll work toward the changes you want to see in your life. I look forward to working with you.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Smithtown, NY

Searching for therapists in Smithtown starts with finding someone whose background matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with concerns like yours. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and help you understand what care with them may look like.

In a smaller community like Smithtown, the right local match may depend on both fit and availability. In-person sessions may work well if you prefer an office near Smithtown, Hauppauge, or Nissequogue, while virtual sessions can expand your options across New York. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare style, focus areas, and practical details in one place.

Therapy in Smithtown can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, review detailed bios, see estimated costs after entering your plan details, and book directly when you’re ready.
