About Robin
Robin Gross, LCSW, helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anger, anxiety, grief, or life changes. She works with issues like depression, trauma and abuse, sleep and eating struggles, parenting challenges, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Robin writes simply and listens closely to each person’s story.
She brings 35 years of clinical experience in Texas to her work. Her background includes inpatient and outpatient settings, child development, probation and parole-related care, and end-of-life support.
Background and approach
She has also supported people affected by adoption and foster care, chronic illness, caregiver strain, and attachment concerns. Robin uses a mix of practical approaches. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take purposeful steps.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy helps the person lead the pace and focus of sessions. Sessions are tailored to the person’s goals.
Robin favors short-term problem solving and longer-term work when needed. She helps people build coping tools, manage anger and stress, and restore confidence after setbacks. Faith is a part of her life and she can offer faith-based Christian counseling when requested.
She also respects different cultures, beliefs, and spiritual views. The approach is practical, down-to-earth, and designed to match what each person needs.

Practical approaches for online care
Robin commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. ACT focuses on identifying what matters most to a person and taking small, value-driven steps even when emotions are difficult; it can help with anger, anxiety, and life transitions. CBT looks at thought patterns and behaviors, teaching simple experiments to test unhelpful beliefs and build new habits for mood and sleep. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of her approach, giving the person control over goals and pace so sessions feel collaborative and respectful.Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Robin talks with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. The plan can change as needs shift, with short-term skills work or longer-term exploration based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging can work for brief coaching, tracking progress, or staying connected between longer sessions.
