About Robin
Robin Ross helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family strain, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. He also supports people facing addictions, intimacy concerns, parenting strain, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, grief, and seasonal mood shifts. Robin uses everyday language and practical steps to make therapy feel manageable.
Robin has 10 years of clinical experience and holds an LCSW, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. He draws on that background to focus on what a person needs now, rather than jargon.
How Robin works
Sessions are collaborative and goal oriented to fit each person's life and pace. His work includes addressing process addictions like problematic pornography, excessive exercise, and gambling alongside substance-related concerns. He also helps people navigate relationship challenges using research-informed methods for communication and conflict.
For parents he offers straightforward strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve everyday family interactions. Robin describes himself as non-religious but familiar with Christian concerns, including issues that can arise for people from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or those thinking through faith questions. He encourages clients to bring whatever worldview matters to them into session.
Therapy sessions emphasize practical tools, clearer communication, and building on existing strengths. Robin frames change as a series of small steps and helps people notice progress along the way.

Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Robin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns. He also uses the Gottman Method to focus on communication and conflict skills for partners who want better interaction and emotional connection. Existential Therapy appears in his work as well, inviting people to clarify values, meaning, and personal choices when coping with life changes or grief.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, values, and day-to-day needs. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most in session and between meetings.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversations and working through interaction patterns. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging work for quick updates, homework support, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, school, or family commitments.
