Therapist

Hi there! I use therapy to help adults reconnect themselves to their own innate drive to heal

I have a wide range of experience that encompasses counseling to running a counseling program. I've completed advance training in numerous counseling theories and am a CBT trainer at a behavioral health clinic. This experience allows me to adapt evidence based interventions to fit your personality and treatment goals. But that is not why you will get better in therapy; that is due to your own innate drive to heal.

Therapist

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York, I know reaching out for support can be incredibly challenging, especially when you’re exhausted from constantly criticizing yourself, overthinking every decision, or carrying experiences from the past that still affect how you see yourself today.

Prioritizing your own healing can be difficult when so much feels outside of your control. My goal is to create a warm, open-minded, and occasionally humorous space where you feel supported every step of the way.

Wherever your healing journey begins, we’ll move at your pace and figure it out together.

Robin James

Therapist

Virtual • Brooklyn, NY


I have been working with individuals, couples and families for many years. I am thought of as empathic, warm and engaging. I consider therapy to be a partnership. It is designed to work towards "your" goals, and it is my goal, to help you achieve them. I have worked with people having many different "struggles" or "transitions" in their lives. I am experienced in all areas from trauma, childhood and adult abuse, DV, anxiety, depression, sexuality, family or other relationships, along with substance use disorders/struggles. I also understand the specific challenges that come with parenting, and the issues we encounter coping with the varied neeeds of aging parents. I use many different modalities in our work. I believe that we all can benefit from having a therapist to work with, and I look forward to meeting you. While I currently reside in the Hudson Valley, I am from NYC, and do also understand the specific stressors of city life.
