I'm Robin
a Peer Recovery Specialist helping women on their pathway to recovery, reclamation and transformation.
Changing how I coped with mental and behavioral health challenges meant breaking old habits of isolation and self-reliance. Through honesty, openness, and support, I found balance and resilience. Now, as a Peer Recovery Specialist, I’m here to help support other women on their path to recovery and transformation.
Peer Recovery Specialists have lived experience and recovery from their mental health challenges. Anxiety, depression, substance use disorder, grief, and betrayal trauma are the main areas I support. I also have experience navigating major life transitions such as career changes, marriage, motherhood, divorce, empty nest and mid-life crisis. These life events may cause mental health opportunities for women situationally.
I currently work as a Peer Recovery Specialist for the Virginia Mental Health Warmline. I am pursuing my Masters in Clinical Mental Health-Counseling.
