Experience

Before becoming a therapist, Robert spent many years serving as a Youth and Family Minister, supporting teenagers and their families through some of life’s most formative and challenging seasons. This experience provided him with a profound understanding of the unique pressures that young people face, as well as the complex dynamics within family systems. It also taught him the value of creating a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals can process their stories, ask difficult questions, and grow into healthier versions of themselves. Today, Robert carries that same relational approach into his work as a therapist, partnering with clients of all ages while specializing in work with teenagers, young adults, and families navigating life transitions, identity exploration, and relational struggles.
