About

I’ve worked for a few programs in New Jersey, such as Project Live and the Mommy & Me program, providing services to those in need. I love helping people obtain better mental health and seeing their progress. Having worked in so many types of environments, I’ve heard it all before. If you feel any hesitation to share your OCD experiences out of fear or shame, you’ll be met with a safe, non-judgemental space. You’ll find me to be a great listener, incredibly supportive, and very knowledgeable. We’ll work together to build a trusting relationship so you can feel comfortable being honest and open, leading to great sessions that move you forward to reaching your goals. I know you can achieve treatment success, and I’m here to guide you through it.

I went into this therapy with not much hope of my life nor my symptoms improving, but I knew I had to try. Robyn helped me conquer so many of my fears and compulsions, I am so very grateful. Of course, we know that OCD will never go away but NOCD and Robyn have returned my ability to enjoy my life and not to live in fear of my next thought. Thank you!

Robin takes the time to understand thought processes I have. Her therapy style is client centered which allows me to be active in my sessions. I like that she knows how to encourage without being pushy.

I came in for largely broad ocd but through my work with my therapists we’ve honed in on my subtypes and how they manifest and being aware of the behaviors and having the words to describe and process them has made it all the easier to implement the tools i have been taught. I think i still have a ways to go, but I have made so much progress because of the program and my family really notices!

She knows exactly what she’s doing. Extremely professional and confident, leads/facilitates the session, makes me feel heard, validated, encouraged, accountable, empowered and hopeful.

Robyn was helpful and her explanations were age appropriate.

I love that Robyn really listened to my input as a parent, and also that she was able to sort through what’s actually going on without pushing for more therapy than we actually need. This was only our first appointment, but I was pleased with how it went & feel confident about moving forward with her.

I believe we are making progress, we are keeping track of when things trigger my daughter and she’s becoming more self aware of her reactions. I am also more aware of my own behaviors that have reinforced her compulsions. I am dialing bavk on those too! My daughter and I are both going to be more comfortable being uncomfortable as we know it will pass and we are stronger for it.

Z.A.

Jul 06, 2023

We are on a good path and needing to help my daughter take more ownership of her therapy. She’s a little embarrassed by her ocd, but I believe we convinced her this will help her feel better.

We loved Robyn! She was very attentive to my son and I. My son is very shy but he felt very comfortable talking to her. She talked to both of us and was very informative and met our needs. Highly recommend her! We look forward to talking to her again!

Robyn is great! Today I was not able to log in on my desk top. Was not given the option to log in on the website.

So thankful that Robyn gave me the gentle push I needed to start challenging myself again. I’d been having some depression and feeling like a failure because my thoughts were so loud and persistent despite not giving in to compulsions, but Robyn’s encouragement helped me stay the course through that rough patch. I didn’t think I was ready to push myself further (now I can see that was the OCD talking and not me!) but I agreed to the exposure Robyn suggested and now I feel like I’ve got my strength back and I’m feeling hopeful again!

I felt like the assessment could have taken less of the session and I would to have liked to have been given tools to start working on problems more.

Today was my hardest exposure yet and I would never have been able to face it on my own. I am kicking OCD’s butt and doing things that I never thought possible with Robyn’s help and support. I am so thankful to be getting my life back!

Robyn has so much empathy & helps me feel at ease. This really helps with the process. Thank you!

Great first session! Robyn is so patient and kind and I can tell that she really understands the OCD struggle. I felt like I probably talked too much and afterwards I felt sort of bad for rambling on (even though Robyn still kept the session on track like a total pro!) but I realized that happened because Robyn instantly made me feel comfortable and safe enough to let everything out. I actually really needed that and now I feel even more ready and excited to move past the recent bad times in my life and focus on ERP and getting my life back!

She did a wonderful job at staying present and attentive to my concerns, during our first session. Leaving me with the impression that we’ll have some constructive breakthrough sessions in the months to come.

Robyn is an absolute rockstar! ? I am just incredibly grateful I have the chance to work with her as my ERP therapist as well as have her as an Mental Health advocate whilst I learn to navigate my newly diagnosed, (although it was decades long persuit for this true and correct diagnosis to go alongside my Bipolar I). In Robyn I have found someone whom not only BELIEVES me and what I’m saying, but also believes my symptoms are REAL and not made up and are really are intrusive to the point of receiving the official OCD diagnosis. She agrees that I am not the terrible person OCD wants me to believe and accept. She also understands and non judgmentally supports my own kind of debilitating hell consisting of horrific, and just disgustingly appalling and totally unwanted thoughts that would give any neurotypical person nightmares. Through my time consuming the ridiculously mindlessness of “being afraid of everything” and avoiding most things in life, it has completely traumatized me and completely ruined my self esteem, self confidence and self image, it’s just a long heartbreaking story…..and I am at the point where I believe I am deserving of a new happier chapter in the story of my life! Still though, along comes Robyn, and she STILL ACCEPTS me! She is constantly validating me and really just shows the most utmost respect to me through all of this! Robyn is incredibly kind and personable and I feel so incredibly fortunate that she was available to take me on as a new client! As I am officially starting ERP at my next appointment on July 4th, 2022 and I know life is going to change for me, drastically. It’s going to be a pretty tough at first from what I remember from working on exposure therapy more then a decade ago, and I know with Robyn, the multitude of NOCD support groups I have joined, my own mental health providers outside of NOCD and my lovely family, that anything really and truly is possible! I am ready to face this unwanted entity, (OCD) that wants to control me and see me fail….not this time OCD, I have an army fighting for me, and 3 amazing children to fight for! They deserve a level headed and present mama. I got this, I am scared, but then again I am only human and there has been so many years of fears, phobias, superstitions that got out of control, hellish obsessions and debilitating compulsions. My children deserve the best version of there mom as well as my partner for 26 years does as well, for those reasons I am relentlessly, and on my own, perusing ERP to be the best version of myself for me, I deserve joy and happiness, love and kindness. I just want to be free. Thx ☺️

Robyn was terrific. During our first session she outlined the process for my son's treatment, asked lots of great and important questions and listened to what he was communicating. So glad we found NOCD.
