I’m Robert G. Engle, LMHC, a virtual therapist specializing in EMDR therapy with student-athletes, college students, and high-performing individuals. I help clients work through performance anxiety, trauma, injury-related stress, fear of failure, burnout, perfectionism, ADHD-related stress, and identity strain. Many of the people I work with are used to performing well on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or under constant pressure internally. My approach is thoughtful, direct, an...
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about what comes next, you’re not alone. College can bring a lot of stress—from anxiety and ADHD to pressure from school, friends, and/or relationships. I'm here to support you through it. Therapy is a space where you can be real, work through what’s been bothering you, and start building the kind of life that feels more balanced and meaningful....
I offer depth-oriented therapy for clients who feel stuck with relationships, identity questions, life transitions, grief, or anxiety. Many have tried therapy before and found it helpful but incomplete. I work with adults, children, couples, families, and seniors, creating space for exploration and lasting change. My work is psychoanalytic and relational, affirming why difficulties persist despite every effort to heal. I offer a supportive, structured space where open-ended conversation and c...

Before becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I worked as a Correctional Officer and got to witness first hand how untreated mental health and substance abuse challenges bled over into so many different areas of life. I believe that people have an inherent desire to change their lives but some are unsure of where to start. Sometimes being empowered to change is a matter of learning what you don't know. I provide a safe, nonjudgement space to process your thoughts, desires, and fears, and co...
On the outside it looks like you have it all together, but inside you're engaged in a constant struggle for control. Your anxiety, OCD, and/or eating disorder has taken over your life. You find yourself in a constant loop of feeling worried, nervous, stressed and at times not good enough, thin enough, or smart enough. You’re stuck and unable to find the relief that you crave, so you try temporary fixes. Sometimes you disconnect and avoid people and your responsibilities, sometimes you binge, som...
The college and graduate school years can be particularly hard. You may want to start counseling because you're struggling with stress and anxiety, depression, unhealthy relationships, traumatic experiences like sexual assault and emotional abuse, low self-worth, and unresolved family issues. Additionally, the events in our larger world--oppression, politics, the environment, financial instability--may impact your sense of safety and your motivation to keep building a better future. I have ...
Welcome! There are times in life where we may find ourselves struggling with current stressors or are experiencing challenges coping with wounds from the past. While seemingly functioning in the day-to-day routines of work, school, home, and within relationships, it becomes increasingly difficult or sometimes even impossible to manage. For many of us, strength is often perceived as “holding it together” while we are painfully bottling up the emotions that we were actually designed to experien...
In both my personal experiences and professional work, I have seen how healing a supportive presence can be for people who are struggling. I think it is a great privilege to work as a therapist and be able to offer that sort of presence to clients. I have clinical experience working with students who have struggled with various issues in their lives, including complex trauma (emotional, physical, and sexual), depression and anxiety, family/relationship issues, and religion/spirituality. I look f...
Healing happens when we feel safe enough to show up exactly as we are. All parts of you are welcome here. I’m not here to change you or fix you. I don’t think you are “broken” or that there's anything "wrong" with you. Together we'll create an accepting + compassionate environment, with respect for your intuition + body's wisdom underlying all that we do. I’m trauma + social justice-informed and view therapy through an intersectional lens (mind, body, environment, culture). During our time t...

I am dual trained in Mental Health in addition to Marriage and Family therapy. Therefore I work with individuals as well as couples and families. My approach to working with clients is to identify where they are currently at, then help them identify where they want to be. Through collaboration I work with clients to identify clear, identifiable short term goals to aid them in growing closer to their main therapeutic goal. Identifying current positive coping skills as well as collaboratively cre...

Welcome. The arena is a place of contact; it is a place of imperfection, but also of showing up. It is not always a comfortable place, but rather a place of courage and risk. And, if we allow it, it can also be an incredible place of discovery. At Arena, we often work with the “inner critic” of clients, that discouraging voice in our heads that tells us to play it safe or give up - that we aren’t good enough, that we can’t do it. We strive to overcome this by echoing these words of ...

Young adulthood can be a time of tremendous excitement, joy, and opportunity. It can also be stressful and scary! I love working with people in this time of life as you navigate becoming yourself. I offer a welcoming and affirming space where you can explore the big and small questions you're facing about your identities, your relationships, and your future. If you're bringing a history of trauma or family conflict with you to college, I can help as you sort through it at your own pace and dec...
At Arise, we do things differently. We believe healing thrives in real relationships—in spaces where people feel seen, heard, and deeply respected. That’s why we’ve created a practice that reflects who we are: authentic, compassionate, and grounded in trust. Our approach is human-first, not symptom-first. We reject cold, clinical models that pathologize the human experience. Instead, we offer care that is transparent, non-judgmental, and free from unnecessary gatekeeping—because we believe yo...
