Therapist, She/Her
Robin Smith completed her MA in Applied Child and Adolescent Psychology from the University of Washington. She received her practicum training in OCD and anxiety disorders at the Evidence Based Treatment Centers of Seattle – Child Anxiety Center. She is trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (including Exposure Therapy and ERP), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She is also training in Family Based Therapy for eating disorders and CBT for ARFID.
What Robin would like you to know about her:
I treat individuals ages 8 and up who are challenged by anxiety, OCD, depression, traumatic events, suicidality, perfectionism, and eating disorders. I work with teens who really dislike school and/or struggle with school, as well as with teens who succeed in school and are still stressed by it.
I particularly enjoy working with twice-exceptional individuals, exchange/international students, and emerging adults. I also see patients located internationally (for example, on study abroad, DoD, DoS assignments) on a case-by-case basis.
I believe you’re the expert in your life, and I know a lot about evidence-based treatment. Together, we figure out what’s making your life challenging, what would make your life easier, then learn and practice new skills to alleviate some of the challenges. Eventually, I hope you’ll know how to use those skills so effectively and that I’ll end up out of a job.
Languages: Russian, Spanish
If you prefer to speak Russian or Spanish in session, please do, I can understand you! However, I’ll respond in English to provide the best clinical care.
