More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 7 State: Virginia

Hi! My name is Robin Carver. I have been a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW since 2002. I come to this position with varied professional experiences. I completed an internship at a domestic violence shelter, provided intensive, in-home counseling to families for 1.5 years, worked on a mental health unit at a local hospital providing discharge planning, group work and conducted suicide assessments for 6 years. I spent 4.5 years working in a Therapeutic Day Treatment Program at both a middle school and elementary school (5 yo-18 yo), in which I offered a minimum of one hour of therapeutic intervention and support to children/adolescents, on a daily basis. I was in a supervisory role for the TDT Program and a School Based Outpatient Counseling Program for the last 11 years, supervising clinicians in these positions and providing supervision for their LPS/LCSW licensure. I also supervised an Intensive Care Coordination program, one of the most intensive therapeutic services available for youth, for the last 2 years. These numerous experiences have helped me to grow in my professional development immensely as well as provided me with varied opportunities to develop and strengthen my clinical skills. I feel that building a strong and trusting relationship is the foundation to a successful therapeutic experience. Hence, that is the focus of my work, finding a way to join with you where you are in life. Being warm, kind, accepting, non-judgmental, listening and reflecting are core principles I utilize in counseling. Once a trusting relationship has been established, I will begin working with you to find strategies that will work to alleviate the various symptoms you may be experiencing. I find it extremely rewarding to help you identify your strengths and values, teach you coping skills and strategies to assist you in overcoming challenging situations in a positive way and being there for you in times of need. Sometimes, you just need a person to trust, someone who will listen to you, someone to be with you in your most difficult moments. I am humbled to have this opportunity and cherish each and every person with whom I have the opportunity to work. I believe that everyone is unique, strong and resilient and I enjoy being able to walk beside you in your journey of self-growth. I am excited to have the opportunity to work with you!

Warmly,

Robin

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I cannot say how grateful and thankful I am that I have Robin in my life. It took me nearly 20 years to finally get the help I needed and she has been a god-send. It’s never too late to get help. It’s a tough but rewarding journey, and Robin’s expertise, professionalism, warmth, understanding, and genuine kindness has made therapy the approachable and doable support I needed all along. Thank you, Robin!

Robin is a compassionate and supportive therapist who is also very professional. She has helped me through some very challenging family relationships as well as life changes. I appreciate that she takes her cue from me as to what I hope to/need to work on during our sessions, and that she is able to connect different elements of my life to whatever we are talking about. I have grown emotionally and reduced my anxiety with the support of Robin.

Robin is the perfect therapist for me. She truly listens in an unbiased way and always knows exactly what to say. I often come the the session with something I need to work through and then after just 45 minutes with Robin, the weight of the world gets lifted off of my shoulders. Robin is a wonderful listener and always knows what to say. I’ve been able to use the strategies she’s given me in my everyday life and it has helped my anxiety and confidence tremendously. Robin is the perfect therapist for me and if you are looking for someone who is kind, supportive, and unbiased, she will be the perfect therapist for you, too.

Robin Carver was the best therapist I have ever worked with. I move around a lot and I was at a big changing point in my life with many stresses that I couldn’t seem to handle. I felt comfortable talking about anything with her and always looked forward to our meetings! My view on my life both in long term and in the day to day have changed and I also got a lot of help with working on my relationship with my fiancé. We both have been working together stronger and communicating more.
