About Robin
Robin Daughenbaugh is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with three years practicing as an LCSW and a longer background in social work. She focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Robin writes plainly and works with people who need practical help getting through difficult moments.
She uses straightforward conversation to identify what is most pressing for the client. Sessions aim to build on existing strengths and clarify steps that feel doable. Her work addresses motivation, confidence, and the everyday problems that make stress worse.
Robin draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen for each person’s priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to look at patterns of thinking and behavior that feed anxiety or low mood. Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach when people want help changing substance use or other habits.
She has additional focus on adoption and foster care issues, aging and geriatric concerns, caregiver stress, and end-of-life counseling. Other areas she supports include grief, social anxiety, panic, and trauma after sexual assault.
In session she tends to be practical and goal-focused. People can expect direct suggestions, collaborative goal setting, and follow-up on progress. Robin asks for concrete examples and works with tasks you can try between appointments.
