Trauma-Informed Counsellor,
Meet Your
Robin Johnson
I’m Robin, a trauma-informed counsellor offering a calm, relational, and body-aware approach to healing. My work supports teens and adults who are ready to feel steadier in themselves, reconnect with their inner life, and cultivate trust and safety in both body and mind.
My Vision
I believe healing begins with safety. My vision is to offer a calm, supportive space where you’re not rushed, fixed, or pushed but met with care, respect, and curiosity. A space where it feels possible to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with yourself in a way that feels steady and kind. This work is guided by presence and relationship, allowing change to unfold naturally, at your own pace.
My Therapeutic Approach
Relational & Trauma-Informed
I create a safe, respectful environment where your growth unfolds at a pace that feels right for you. Safety and choice are foundational. You remain in control of the process, not pushed beyond your comfort.
Body-Aware & Somatic
Healing involves felt experience as much as conversation. We consider how your nervous system holds stress, emotion, and protection patterns, and support you in listening to your body with curiosity rather than judgment.
Integration-Focused
Whether through mindfulness, parts-based exploration (like Internal Family Systems), or trauma-processing support like EMDR, the work supports integration, helping you move from survival mode toward regulation, presence, and embodiment.
Who I Work With
This work may be a good fit for you if you:
Feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally tired
Have a sense that something deeper, including past experiences or trauma, remains unresolved beneath the surface
Are looking for therapy that feels safe, respectful, and gently paced
Are ready to explore emotions, patterns, and bodily experience without judgment
Are not looking to be “fixed”, but to understand yourself more deeply and build self-trust
