Welcome and thanks for including me in your search. Finding a good fit for therapy is important and difficult. Please look around my website to get a sense of me and feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

I work with adults who are interested in changing something inside of themselves. This could be a slight adjustment or a more complex effort to stop suffering. My goal is to help you discover your resilience and to find clarity. You define the change you want in therapy. I guide the process.

I’m an active therapist who supports you in working safely towards your goals. I help you gain direct experience of your body and your emotions. I utilize somatic awareness to help solidify, as well as generate, new understandings. A full and nuanced awareness of your experience, I believe, will help you better navigate your life.

A part of this approach is the safe experiencing of previously and/or unconsciously avoided pain. Often, we just keep doing the same thing simply because it’s how we’ve always done it. But what if your strategies are actually getting in your way? I can help you identify blind spots and expand your internal, emotional awareness, thus promoting a fuller acceptance of yourself.

I specialize in experiential dynamic therapy (EDT), specifically utilizing ISTDP (Intensive Short-term Dynamic Psychotherapy) and AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy). These approaches are emotion-focused, somatic, and utilize experiential techniques geared to generate deep emotional responses and insights.

Your goals and problems will be addressed actively from the moment we begin our work together. We’ll act as a team to stay safely focused on your experience during each moment of our sessions. I believe that you want to be healthy and together we will focus on the transformations you desire.   

Feel free to contact me at 404.666.2166 with any questions you have about how I can help you. Leave a message and I will get back to you within 48 hours. You also can email me at robert@blondeaucounseling.com. My office is located at 1788 Century Blvd, Suite B, Atlanta, GA 30345.
