Meet Kurtis Robinson
Hi, I’m Kurtis!
I have a curious nature, a passion for learning and I have always been interested in what people can teach me.
Much of therapy involves learning and discovery!
I love that every person I meet teaches me something new.
I am passionate about helping people see how strong they are.
Often, we think about how stress, mental health challenges, and even trauma can leave us wounded. Sometimes we forget that our body, mind and spirit have the innate ability to heal.
I believe that whatever adversity people face, there is always potential to bounce back, find resilience and move forward. My goal is to nurture this healing journey with clients.
“One of the things I love about solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) is its beautiful pragmatism. Steve de Shazer, one of the founders of SFBT, once said, “If it works, do more of it. If it doesn’t work, do something else.” Since I’ve learned SFBT I’ve continued to use it with my clients because it works!”

“Psychology is not just the study of weakness and damage, it is also the study of strength and virtue. Treatment is not just fixing what is broken, it is nurturing what is best within ourselves.”
