"I am eternally grateful for the work we did together"
I started seeing Robert remotely shortly after the pandemic began and I was leaving a difficult relationship. I was very low when we first spoke and slowly but surely Robert helped me regain my confidence and clarity which guided me into the next phase in my life. I am eternally grateful for the work we did together. Robert is kind, patient, and gentle. He asks good questions and is very intuitive in sessions. I would highly recommend him for talk therapy.
"I've had several therapists before, and Robert was my favorite."
I did talk therapy over the phone with Robert for several years, starting at the beginning 2020. My experience was excellent. I have had several therapists before, and Robert was my favorite. He is compassionate, focused, easy to talk to, and he took my issues and concerns seriously.

I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist.

"I can't recommend Robert enough."
Robert is incredible. When I started with him I didn't know exactly what I wanted, but what I got was someone who was kind, patient, encouraging, and who was just as comfortable navigating my lows as they were my highs. I can't recommend Robert enough, thank you!
A little more about me...
My path into this work has taken me through community clinics, hospitals, and shelters, and now into private practice, where I offer a thoughtful, relational approach to therapy. I draw from contemporary psychoanalytic perspectives to help people make sense of their emotional lives and move toward deeper connection—with themselves and others.
