About Robin Carver

Robin Carver, LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), brings a breadth of hands-on experience across settings that support children, adolescents, adults, and families. Her early work included an internship at a domestic violence shelter and 1.5 years providing intensive in-home counseling to families, followed by six years on a hospital mental health unit where she focused on discharge planning, group work, and conducting suicide risk assessments.

She later spent 4.5 years delivering daily therapeutic interventions in a Therapeutic Day Treatment program that served students from elementary through high school, and for more than a decade she carried supervisory responsibilities for that TDT program and a School Based Outpatient Counseling Program, mentoring clinicians and supporting their progress toward LPS and LCSW licensure. Robin also supervised an Intensive Care Coordination program for two years, overseeing one of the most intensive therapeutic services available for youth. Since May 2022 she has provided counseling to adults and teens via online sessions.

Robin emphasizes building a strong, trusting relationship as the foundation for effective therapy. She approaches clients with warmth, kindness, acceptance, and nonjudgmental listening, using reflection to help people feel understood. Once rapport is established, she works collaboratively to identify practical strategies and coping skills that align with each person’s strengths and values. She finds it rewarding to support clients through difficult moments and to walk alongside them during times of growth and change.

Many people ask whether therapy delivered online can make a meaningful difference. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions - online therapy can be comparable to traditional in-person sessions and offers a practical option for receiving care.

One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals may connect with a therapist in the format that works best for them - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to continue care across different life circumstances.

Licensed professionals offer a variety of therapeutic approaches and you can seek a different therapist if you feel another fit would be better. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible, effective way to work on priorities and develop coping strategies with a trained therapist.
