About
As a queer non-binary person, I understand the importance of feeling seen, heard, and valued.
I am Rachel Robinson, a Licensed Independent Social Worker–Clinical Practice with 3 years of experience. I specialize in crisis intervention, LGBTQIA2S-affirming care, and medical social work. I support teens and adults navigating emotional regulation, mood disruption, stress, and life transitions. I teach coping skills, boundary setting, and mindfulness so you can feel steadier and more in control.
I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of South Carolina in Columbia. My approach is trauma-informed and collaborative, drawing on dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and strengths-based care to build practical skills that reduce distress and strengthen relationships.
As a queer woman living in the South, I understand how vital an affirming, judgment-free space can be. If you are ready to learn new ways to manage emotions, set healthy boundaries, and lower stress, I would be honored to partner with you. Reach out to schedule a first session—we will start where you are and move at your pace.
