About Robyn
Robyn Thorsted is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Utah with nine years of professional experience. She works with adults facing grief, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, anxiety, stress, addictions, relationship and family problems, and life transitions. Robyn also supports people dealing with trauma, depression, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and codependency concerns.
Robyn writes that clients bring strengths and knowledge of their own stories. In sessions she treats the person as the expert on their life and helps them build on what already works. Conversations tend to focus on practical steps for coping, improving confidence, and managing day-to-day stressors.
Her background includes long-term community work with families over three decades, combined with nine years as a licensed counselor. She draws on several clinical approaches to match the work to a person’s needs and goals. That can mean attention to thoughts and behaviors, learning emotional skills, or exploring attachment patterns that shape relationships.
Sessions usually aim to make coping skills usable in everyday life. Robyn helps people practice new ways of setting limits, handling strong feelings, and making choices that fit their priorities. She often works on concrete communication strategies and steps to rebuild a steadier sense of self after loss or repeated caretaking.
People who have lived with adoption, blended families, intellectual disability, autism, or end-of-life concerns are included among the issues she lists. Sessions are offered in English and are based in Utah.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based actions. It is often used when someone wants to stop being driven by anxiety or shame and start living by what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical techniques to change patterns that keep stress and low mood in place.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or combine methods based on their goals and preferences. That means trying an approach, checking how it feels, and adjusting over time rather than committing to a single method from the start.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into daily life, such as by removing travel time, allowing a shorter mid-day check-in, or avoiding the need to be on camera every time. These practical benefits can help people keep therapy consistent while they practice boundary-setting, emotion skills, and coping strategies in real situations.
