About
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.

Self-harm counseling is aimed at helping individuals who struggle with harming themselves break this pattern by addressing the underlying emotional causes and working to develop new, healthier coping skills. Thriveworks self-harm therapists in Charlotte, NC are experienced in treating those who self-harm with empathy, compassion, and unconditional regard in order to help them heal and recover, both physically and emotionally.
Self-harm counseling at Thriveworks often uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help clients discover the connections between their thoughts and feelings and their behaviors. By assessing these areas, Thriveworks Charlotte therapists can help clients find and address the true emotional roots of their patterns and, from there, effectively adjust unwanted behaviors.
Self-harm counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of self-harm counseling will often depend on a variety of factors, such as the intensity of an individual’s symptoms or the current levels of stress present in their lives. Because of this, treatment can last a handful of months or on a continual basis over the course of years. In the end, it’s up to the client and their individual needs.
Self-harm can be a coping mechanism for dealing with intense emotional pain, but it doesn’t have to be the only way. At Thriveworks Charlotte, our skilled therapists are here to help you find healthier ways to manage your emotions.
