Desirée N. Robinson, LCSW-C, ACS is an Integrative Psychotherapist passionate about supporting people to repair emotional wounds around sex, intimacy, body image, and self-worth. She supports individuals and couples to navigate how to use their skills for connection – as opposed to survival or protection. Every session is client-centered with a focus on education, empowerment and inviting you into a new (and more fulfilling) way of living.

Some creative ways that we may work together include Mind-Body Tools and Techniques, Communication Skills, De-escalation Skills, Drawing/Journaling/Mapping, Inner-Child Work, EMDR, and more!
