Yasmina Robinson, MD, LCPC

Yasmina Robinson is a licensed clinician in Maryland who supports people facing family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, ADHD, stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and relationship concerns. She holds an MD and is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and she brings ten years of clinical experience to her work. She aims to make first steps toward change feel manageable and clear. Her approach is straightforward and warm. Sessions focus on identifying what feels most urgent, setting small goals, and practicing new ways of coping and communicating. She creates a space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and memories without judgment. Yasmina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought patterns that affect mood and behavior. She also draws on client-centered methods to follow each person's priorities, and solution-focused techniques to build small, practical changes that add up over time. Trauma-focused strategies are used when past hurts are getting in the way of daily life. In sessions she tends to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Conversations include skill practice, problem solving, and checking what works between meetings. She supports people exploring identity, self-love, and life purpose alongside clinical concerns such as bipolar disorder, depression, and impulsivity. People who reach out can expect calm, direct guidance and a focus on usable strategies. Yasmina emphasizes respect for each person's pace while helping them move toward clearer choices and better day-to-day coping.

How therapeutic approaches meet online care

Yasmina combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve daily functioning. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on processing painful memories and building coping skills so past events interfere less with current life.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaboration. She will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit a person's needs, and adjust strategies based on what helps most. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay practical and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a hands-free check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions, try short problem solving, or maintain steady contact during busy weeks. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and daily life.
