Elise Robinson, LCSW, LICSW

Do you wish life would slow down so you can take a breath? Stuff has been piling up and now your relationships are strained, your social life isn't what you want, and you don’t even really know who you are. However things got to this point, you know you want life to be different and can't wait anymore. Life isn't supposed to be this hard, yet it has been. I'm listening and can help make sense of the messy, confusing parts of life. Many of my clients are hesitant to start therapy or have had trouble connecting with other therapists. I get it! Let's be real, vulnerability is scary as hell. People come to me looking to connect with a fellow human whose been there because effective therapy is a place where you feel wholly seen & genuinely valued. I hold such gratitude to offer a space that feels safe & open to allow those I work with to freely explore themselves. I deeply value the relationship between a person & their therapist and prioritize nurturing this connection to make our work together the most meaningful for you. I joke with my clients: at the end of the day, I’m here to work myself out of a job. Together, we'll collaborate in achieving what you envision for your life and create lasting change by cultivating healthy habits, gaining tools to navigate life's changes, identifying unhelpful patterns, & discovering or reconnecting with your truest self. I believe we all have the capacity to heal and grow. Warm, intentional support during that journey can make all the difference. Through my own experiences, I know how powerful human connection can be in achieving change. I also know the therapist you trust for help is an important choice. My goal is to foster a space where all parts of you feel truly understood & aligned. So, I take my time to listen and learn about YOU – your circumstances, inclinations, past experiences, and desires to tailor my approach in ways that best serve you and your goals. I uplift and affirm BIPOC, queer, and kink communities, and all forms of identity expression, lifestyles, and relationships. I believe that book-lovers have one of the best communities, movies are better watched on a couch than in a theater, and broccoli ruins a meal, but I won't judge if we disagree. I look forward to knowing you! Visit my website or send me a message to get started.
