Dr. Robbins was a fantastic couples therapist. Really provided sound active listening and conflict…read moreresolution tools that could be used in real life. Nothing nebulous or overtly complicated. Provided very neutral feedback utilizing faith based lessons. You're going to both go in hurt and feeling lost. He doesn't take sides like a lot of less experienced therapists do but he is honest and gentle in his feedback. If you really want to learn proper conflict resolution or about tools that will help you steer conflict to a more amicable place, I highly recommend Dr. Robbins. Life is not perfect and neither are any of us. Learning to love each other with faith based teachings has provided my wife and I with a tremendous path forward. Our relationship is flourishing after about 10 sessions. Best investment we could have made. All the best to anyone looking into getting help.

I would definitely love to intern here again in the future!

My spouse and I were going through the most difficult time in our marriage and Dr. Robbins went…read moreabove and beyond for us. If there was a gap in us coming (due to my husband schedule) the office would call to check on us. He gave us many resources, books, shared his years of professional experience with us and we both trust him. He was so patient and when I would ask him questions he always would listen and made me feel heard even when it was difficult to hear. He always referred us to the Bible and quoted many scriptures, which was huge for us, and reminded us of what's most important. It allowed to walk and respond to the situation as God would want us to.

I normally don't write negative reviews, but my experience with Dr. Robbins left me deeply…read moredisturbed, especially during our last couples therapy session. One of the most concerning moments was when he told me that my childhood trauma was my "perception." I shared that my mom would wake me up in the middle of the night to console her through panic attacks. I then asked him if a child being molested by a parent would also be "perception," and he said yes. He later clarified that perception doesn't mean it didn't happen--but using that word felt extremely invalidating. When I expressed that, he dismissively responded, "Okay, I just won't use that word if you don't like it." Throughout our sessions, he emphasized "self-control." When I shared that I believe control and self-control are often used to push away feelings, he immediately told me we could not work together. When I tried to explain my perspective, he shut down and refused to share his own thoughts. During that same session, he disengaged almost completely--remaining silent and appearing to stare me down. He said he didn't want to "argue," but I was simply expressing how I felt. Therapy should be a safe space to communicate openly, not one where a therapist withdraws when challenged. There was also a situation where my wife stormed out of last session because I didn't want to spend our 45 minute session going through a 50-page workbook. I preferred to do that outside of session time. Despite this, Dr. Robbins placed the blame entirely on me. And because I kept urging Dr. Robbins to look at the underlying root issues in our relationship, he acted very childishly by using that same approach in a crude way on me. My wife lost our family 500k by gambling it away in stocks and crypto. He asked how it made me feel and what trauma that was coming from. Obviously, it makes me feel like I don't matter, but I want to break the cycle of my childhood trauma where boundaries were not allowed, and I want to set boundaries with my wife. When Dr. Robbins heard that, he didn't care to respond, because his main goal was to one up me by using the root cause methods I was urging him to use. At another point, he asked, "Where do feelings come from?" I said the inner child, and he responded, "No, it comes from behavior." I am always talking to my son about feelings and emotions, and after the session I told him what Dr. Robbins said about feelings not coming from the inner child. My six-year-old son's immediate response was, "what the h*ll." Even my six-year old son is emotionally smarter than Dr. Robbins. I would not recommend working with Dr. Robbins because he uses his pain and his coping mechanisms to dictate the session. After ten sessions, we had no real improvement in our relationship.

I can't say enough good things about my time in IOP/PHP here. What made the biggest difference was…read morethe people. My case manager, Sarah was absolutely wonderful -- so down to earth, responsive, and genuinely advocated for me constantly and in my corner every step of the way. She made navigating everything feel manageable when I felt overwhelmed. The therapy team is exceptional. Amanda, Kristin, Rylee, and Nick each brought something unique to the table, and together they created a space that felt safe, challenging, and real. You can tell they actually collaborate and care. And program director Christiane sets the tone for the whole program. It's organized, compassionate, and focused on actual healing, not just checking boxes. If you're considering IOP/PHP, this team is the reason to choose this place, I'm leaving stronger because of all of them. Thank you.

At my lowest, Sarah was there to pick me up and humanize my struggles helping me push through my intention to isolate.

I would definitely recommend their services for seasons of life that require extra support and compassion.

I've attended many seminars and trainings from well-known speakers and coaches over the years, but Tim's approach is different. It wasn't just coaching--it felt like real healing. He helped me look at my past failures, disappointments, and resentments from a completely new perspective. Instead of seeing them as burdens, he helped me realize they were actually part of what shaped me into the person I am today. For the first time, I felt genuine gratitude for experiences I had spent years wishing never happened. That shift alone was incredibly powerful. I left the session feeling lighter, more at peace, and more hopeful about the future. I'm genuinely excited for my next session and to continue this journey of growth and healing. Thank you, Tim, for helping me see that our greatest challenges can become our greatest gifts.

I'm finding it easier to pause before reacting, process my feelings in a healthier way, and approach life with more clarity and peace. This wasn't about making everything perfect overnight it was about giving myself the tools to better understand and regulate my emotions. Highly recommend!!!!

I'm incredibly grateful for my therapy sessions with Michael. From the very beginning, he created a…read moresafe and judgment-free space where I felt truly heard. He's extremely patient, takes the time to really listen, and is thoughtful in how he responds to your needs rather than rushing the process. I came into therapy knowing I had a lot of healing to do, and Michael met me exactly where I was. His calm presence and genuine care made it easier to open up and work through things at my own pace. Each session felt intentional, supportive, and grounding. If you're looking for a therapist who truly listens, respects your journey, and supports real healing, I highly recommend Michael.

After investing…read moretime with him I can say with 100% certainty that he deserves every amazing compliment given to him. I've been to highly regarded therapists who spread out meetings for months, consuming unnecessary time and investment. His superpower is that he epitomized complete altruism with laser sharp discernment and focused attention that facilitated deep healing of emotional wounds so buried I didn't even know they existed. He also leaves the door open for further growth and healing without feeling locked into a contractual relationship. Honestly he should patent his Method for all coaches to follow! I give him the highest possible rating and encourage others to not hesitate reaching out to him.
