Hello, my name is Robyn! I am a Registered Psychotherapist in Barrie. I completed my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and received my Honours Bachelor of Arts from the University of Toronto in Cognitive Science, Psychology, and Buddhist Psychology. I also have experience working with youth with behavioural or learning disorders as well as with youth in the foster care system.
When starting with me in the therapy room, I try to foster a down-to-earth, warm, and personable atmosphere so that we can both be our authentic selves. Starting with a new therapist can be intimidating, so my goal is to help make you feel comfortable and confident that I am there for you and able to help. I do this through maintaining a positive, non-judgemental, and compassionate view of you as my client. It is only after this first phase that we can explore the reasons you came to therapy and the goals you would like to work towards.
Going forward from here is when I would use some tools and interventions that might suit your needs and style, such as drawing from EFT, CBT, Mindfulness, DBT, Gottman, Psychodrama, somatic therapies, and solution-focused therapy.
