Meet Robyn:
Hi there! I’m Robyn Smith, MA, and what I love most is helping kids, teens, and adults truly get to know themselves. My goal is to help you recognize your incredible strengths, understand your challenges, and embrace who you are in the moment. I strive to create a safe, caring space where you feel comfortable exploring your identity and becoming your most genuine self.
My background:
For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to make a positive difference in people’s lives. I believe every person deserves to live a life that feels authentic and true to who they are. Over the years, I’ve learned how powerful it can be to walk with people through their ups and downs, helping them uncover their true selves. This journey has only deepened my dedication to serving others and improving how I practice therapy.
​I began my academic journey with a BA from Indiana University (Go Hoosiers!), and later earned an MS in Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. With nearly a decade of study, hands-on clinical experience, and consistent supervision, I’m equipped to meet clients exactly where they are and offer support that’s uniquely right for them.
Therapy with me:
I specialize in play therapy, which allows me to connect with kids in the ways they naturally express themselves. Beyond that, I use a client-centered approach to support individuals of all ages, building strong and healing relationships through openness, authenticity, and collaboration.
Outside of therapy, I’d describe myself as an old soul with a kid’s heart. My favorite movie is Casablanca, but I’d happily eat pizza and donuts for every meal! I think this balance of perspectives helps me connect with people of all ages and stages of life, fostering genuine understanding and real connection.
My core values:
For me, therapy is a truly transformative journey. Growth isn’t always easy, but I believe it’s always worth it. In everything I do, I’m guided by three core values:
-
Meeting you exactly where you are I promise to truly see and hear you without judgment, meeting you in your present state of being.
-
Accepting you completely while seeing your endless potential I embrace you as you are, while holding a hopeful vision of who you’re capable of becoming.
-
Showing up authentically, My openness and authenticity help build the trust and safety needed for deep, healing work.
It’s a true honor to walk alongside my clients as they navigate life’s twists and turns, celebrate their wins, and discover the incredible power that comes from living a life aligned with who they truly are.
