About Robin

LCSW in Oregon with 10 years of experience. Robin Ross works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, LGBT issues, grief, intimacy-related problems, parenting and self-esteem. He also focuses on bipolar disorder, ADHD, paranoia, process addictions like porn or gambling, and seasonal affective disorder.

Robin uses practical, relationship-focused therapy. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Existential Therapy and the Gottman Method. Sessions look at patterns in relationships and everyday thinking. He helps people identify what gets in the way and develop clearer next steps.

Robin has a background in Family Preservation Therapy and has worked with individuals, teens, couples, and adults. He describes himself as non-religious and notes familiarity with Christian concerns, especially those common to LDS persons or people thinking about faith. He emphasizes self-determination and drawing on a person’s existing strengths.

In sessions he talks through current problems, looks for small changes that can help, and addresses barriers to getting support from people who matter. He also brings targeted strategies for addictive behaviors and mood conditions. The approach balances practical skills with discussions about values and meaning.

People can expect direct talk about relationship dynamics and clear, workable steps between sessions. He encourages collaboration on goals and plans, and checks what is helpful as therapy progresses.

How his approaches are used in online work

Robin commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method when addressing mood and relationship concerns. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and offers practical experiments to try between sessions. The Gottman Method focuses on communication habits, conflict patterns and rebuilding connection in partnerships.

He treats therapy as a collaborative process. Together they review goals, try an approach, and adjust methods based on what the person finds useful. Deciding which approach to use is part of the work rather than a fixed choice up front.

Session logistics and available formats should be confirmed before booking. When arranged, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. The therapist and client will work out scheduling, session length and how to use homework or between-session tasks so therapy fits into everyday life.
