About
As someone who has spent many years in the clinical field, I’ve learned that we often recreate unresolved experiences—both individually and within our closest relationships—which highlights the deep threads that connect us all and reinforces my commitment to supporting each client’s growth and holistic well-being.
I am a licensed clinical social worker associate (LCSWA) with 9 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life transitions, emotional challenges, and behavioral concerns. I specialize in helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, family dynamics, and communication difficulties. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in creating a safe, supportive space where you can explore your needs and work toward meaningful, lasting change.
I earned my master’s degree in social work from Johnson C. Smith University and draw from trauma-informed, client-centered, and strengths-based principles. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, and solution-focused techniques to help clients build clarity, coping skills, and emotional resilience.
My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered as you work toward personal growth and well-being. You deserve a space to be honest, feel heard, and move at your own pace. I would be honored to walk with you, offer guidance, and support meaningful changes that help you feel more balanced and connected.

The negative effects of complex trauma don't have to be permanent. As someone who specifically specializes in treating complex trauma and dissociation, we can resolve those problems together.
My name is Brian Robertson, but most people just call me Rob. I am an EMDR therapist specializing in treating complex trauma, dissociative disorders, and borderline personality disorder. To best treat those with whom I work with, I am only taking new cases that have complex trauma. I also have experience in treating victims of sex trafficking, military combat trauma, and victims of ritual abuse and programming (cults). I am also a member of the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation, as well as a member of the ISSTD Special Interest Group for the Treatment of Organized and Extreme Abuse.
Using neurobiology, I like to use a scientific evidence-based, but also holistic and person-centered approach. Some of the therapeutic modalities I use are eye-movement desensitization reprocessing therapy (EMDR), ego state therapy, hypnosis, internal family systems (IFS), somatic therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and cognitive processing therapy.
I like to work with my patients as part of a team and I value being part of the journey in seeing them become the person that they want to be. Through the strength of empowerment, we can work together to help you become the person that you want to be.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Eating disorder therapy is a specialized approach aimed at assisting those who are grappling with a range of eating disorders. These disorders are significant mental health conditions characterized by irregular or unhealthy eating patterns and an intense focus on body weight and shape. Common conditions addressed in Eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID).
At Thriveworks, Eating disorders begins with a thorough assessment and personalized treatment plan. Central to eating disorder therapy is psychotherapy, often employing cognitive behavioral therapy and other specialized techniques to target negative thought patterns.
The signs of an eating disorder can include:
CBT’s remission rate, according to some research, is generally between 50-30% for those seeking assistance for eating disorder symptoms.
The recovery rate for those seeking assistance with eating disorders depends entirely on the individual’s involvement in sessions, the severity of their symptoms, and their willingness to change their eating habits and relationship with food.
Eating disorder therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of Eating disorders will vary from one person to the next, dependent on their specific needs. Your therapist can help to determine what might be most beneficial for you.
Binge Eating Disorder is one of the most prevalent eating disorders that adults can suffer from. Despite this fact there is far less media coverage and understanding of B.E.D. when compared to conditions like Bulimia and Anorexia. The main symptoms of B.E.D are the urge to continue eating food even after you are entirely full and the often complete inability to control your food intake around meal times. Food binges are usually followed by intense emotions such as shame and guilt.
If this sounds familiar and you think you could benefit from talking to a professional, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Charlotte. We can get you scheduled with binge eating disorder counseling right away.
For many, these issues result in weight gain and obesity. These are directly linked to a drastic increase in the likelihood of developing conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease and even stroke. But the physical issues aren’t isolated; if left untreated many B.E.D. suffers become clinically depressed and experience anxiety disorders.
Thankfully for those suffering from B.E.D. the condition can be treated. Some of the most effective ways of treating the disorder are the counseling based methods. These are the methods that Thriveworks Charlotte Counseling specializes in.
The Thriveworks Charlotte counselors are specifically trained to help people who suffer from disorders like B.E.D. The counseling process is designed to cater towards your specific needs. To get started today, reach out to us. We offer evening and weekend sessions, and we accept most major insurances.
