Healthy relationships are essential to our wellbeing.

Let me help you with

yours.

Hello and Welcome.

I’m Karen Robertson, a licensed psychotherapist with a passion for helping people rediscover, refresh, or heal their most important relationships.

Our individual well-being is deeply influenced by the health of our relationships. With a long-standing passion for conflict resolution, I have dedicated years to studying how people connect—and, just as importantly, how they navigate and resolve conflicts—in personal, business, and community settings. When I entered the field of psychotherapy, I felt a strong calling to focus my post-graduate work and practice on helping people strengthen and heal their relationships. I have specialized training in:

Gottman Method Couples Therapy: Levels I, II & III

Treating Affairs & Trauma - Gottman

Couples & Addiction Recovery - Gottman

The Couples Institute - year long intensive

I am proud of my education and credentials.  But I am prouder of my resilience and the experiences that have been critical in shaping how I relate deeply and authentically to a very wide range of people with their own personal and relationship challenges.   

My offer to you: A safe, non-judgemental, guided experience of exploring what holds you back, my wisdom and assistance with getting that crap out of the way of your best life and relationships.

Karen Robertson's profile on the Gottman Referral Network

“ Working briefly on your marriage every day will do more for your longevity than working out at a health club”.

- John Gottman

TESTIMONIALS:

“Karen has a lovely, no-nonsense approach. She is direct about what she sees and verbalizes her observations in a productive way. I have referred several of my clients to her for couples counseling and they have nothing but good things to say”. - therapist colleague

After a number of years and a number of different therapists, I can honestly say that Karen Robertson is the best therapist I have ever worked with.  Like most therapists Karen is well educated in her field, but beyond that she brings a level of intuition enhanced by her ability to listen deeply and hone in quickly on the right issues and the related questions to pursue.  Karen is truly in partnership with her clients in a way that engages both her skills and capacities but also requires the client to make an investment in their own well-being, and not just show up for a one hour conversation.  I can truly say that my experience working with Karen has changed my life by helping me recognize core issues and challenges in my life, and encourage my own ways of inner knowing to help me become wiser at avoiding unhealthy people and situations.  I am truly grateful for all the help and support I received from Karen and would recommend her to anyone searching for help through a great therapist. - former client
