(he/him/his)
Individuals, Families and Couples
Robert is a solutions-focused, systemic and ACT influenced therapist. He enjoys working with individuals, parents, couples, and families. Being vulnerable and talking about difficult things can be really tough, so Robert works hard to make the therapy experience both manageable and approachable. He truly believes that laughter can be one of our strongest and most effective healing tools and looks for ways to make therapy not only effective but also (dare we say) fun.
In his practice, Robert prioritizes helping clients feel safe, hopeful, and connected through building camaraderie, using humor, showing up authentically, active listening, staying genuinely curious and even utilizing self-disclosure when appropriate and helpful. His relaxed and genuine manner allows clients to feel truly connected to him and many clients have shared that they appreciate how down to earth he is because they can easily relate to him. It’s this deep sense of connectedness that can go a long way in the healing process!
Robert is committed to providing a safe and accepting environment where individuals, couples, and families can find help and hope while looking to make a change in their lives.
He will work with you to generate insight into your presenting struggles and to develop concrete, unique recommendations and solutions to help you achieve your goals.
Robert employs tools from a variety of therapeutic modalities such as Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, and Rogerian Therapy. Robert has over a decade of experience in helping people create change and remains passionate about his profession today.
Robert was born and raised in Houston and moved to Austin after graduate school. He is married with two young daughters that he loves spending time with. In his spare time, Robert loves to do lots of things that bring him joy and passion such as axe throwing, rock climbing, disc golf, golf, games of all sorts, being outside, hiking, and reading.
