About Mahood Mountain Therapy
Robyn holds a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from Wilfrid Laurier University and is a registered member of the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW), after having received her Bachelor of Honours in Psychology from the University of Guelph. She also has a bachelor’s in international business.
Robyn is a firm believer that community is a major component of maintaining health, mental health, and well-being. Her passion lies in approaching each individual where they are currently at, with a trauma-informed lens. She specializes in supporting individuals through fertility, relationship challenges, navigating cultural and gender norms, and centering their needs while helping them thrive. Working with trauma-exposed professionals (first responders), survivors of intimate partner violence, and individuals living with cancer has taught her that healing happens in community, and she aims to be part of yours.
She is a trauma-informed and client-centered therapist, drawing on a variety of evidence-based and culturally relevant techniques that best fit your needs. Her goal is to take your lead on how you wish to go through the therapy process and incorporate any cultural or community practices you find essential to your well-being. Having lived, worked, and studied in over 32 countries, she understands the intricacies and loneliness that come with starting a new life from scratch. She is passionate about advocating for gender, racial, and ability equity within our communities, and her current research delves into the intersection of intimate partner violence, brain injury, and new relationships for survivors. She provides therapy in both English and French.
Outside the office, you will find her absorbed in learning, travelling, climbing, dancing, or reading.
