About Robin

Robin Ross is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience. He focuses on common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction, grief, and parenting challenges. He also helps people facing intimacy issues, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, seasonal mood changes, and paranoia.

Robin keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He listens first, then helps people name the problem and try small steps that can make daily life easier. He values each person's right to choose their path and looks for strengths the person may not notice yet.

Background and approach

In sessions he blends structured techniques with conversations about values and meaning. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. He also draws on the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are a focus and on solution-focused and existential ideas to clarify goals.

Robin has a background in family preservation work and long experience helping people with addictive behaviors such as pornography, gambling, exercise-related patterns, and substance use. He is non-religious but understands faith-related concerns, including issues common to Latter-day Saint communities or people rethinking belief. He practices from Oregon and conducts work in English.

Sessions are offered online in several formats to fit different needs and schedules.

Therapy Approaches That Fit Your Life Online

Robin uses the Gottman Method to look at how people interact in relationships and to practice simpler, clearer ways of connecting. That approach is useful when partners or close relations get stuck in repeating patterns and want concrete tools to change them.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors that can reduce anxiety, lift mood, or change addictive patterns. CBT tends to be practical and task-focused, with exercises to do between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Robin collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. He will check in and adjust the plan as progress or new issues appear.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face when a live conversation is helpful. Phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a camera feel is distracting. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins or therapy between sessions easier and can fit a busy schedule.
