About
As a therapist I work to form a warm, caring, and collaborative therapeutic relationship with you to build on your strengths and understand all of you - mind, body, heart, and spirit - so that I am able to assist you in meeting your goals and living the meaningful life you seek and desire.
Patricia Robison is a Licensed Psychologist (LP) in the state of Maryland with more than 15 years of experience working with young adults and adults seeking assistance with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, identity issues, transition issues, stress, grief, and loss.
She earned her MA and Ph.D. degrees in psychology from the Fielding Graduate University. She also has a Ph.D. in Pharmacology from Thomas Jefferson University and certifications from the Barbara Brennan School of Healing and the Center for Mind-Body Medicine. Patricia uses an integral approach with key insights and interventions from pharmacological, psychodynamic, cognitive, humanistic, existential, multicultural, and transpersonal approaches to psychotherapy. This inclusive stance confronts the breadth of psychological complexity and meets the needs of each unique person without blending the approaches into one.
Patricia seeks to form a warm, caring, and collaborative therapeutic relationship with you to build on your strengths and understand you–mind, body, heart, and spirit–so that she is able to help you meet your goals and live the meaningful life you seek and desire.

I am honored to take this journey with you. I chose this career in part because of my own transformative experience with counseling as a young teenager, and I strive to provide that same sense of support, understanding, and positive change for those I work with.
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LPC) with 27 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating PTSD, anxiety, relational concerns, and life transitions. My background includes work across inpatient settings, private practice, and community-based care, with a recent focus on supporting first responders, military families, and individuals seeking healthier relationships and emotional well-being.
I earned my doctorate in couple and family therapy from Drexel University in Philadelphia, where my research focused on intergenerational patterns within families. My clinical approach is client-centered and grounded in curiosity, compassion, and trust, with an emphasis on creating a safe, supportive space for meaningful exploration and growth.
I believe healing happens through strong therapeutic relationships built on safety and collaboration. I will work with you to focus on your priorities, explore difficult experiences at your pace, and support personal and relational growth. Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I am honored to support you in that process.

Whatever concerns are bringing you to therapy, my aim is to help you to know yourself better and to live a fuller life.
My name is John DeHart, and I am a licensed psychologist with 14 years of experience. I work primarily with adults, college students, millennials, individuals who identify as neurodivergent or creative, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. I often help clients navigate life transitions, attachment and relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and concerns related to sexuality. While I adapt my approach to meet each person’s needs, my training is rooted in psychodynamic theory. I believe in a holistic and depth-oriented approach to therapy, one that explores the underlying causes of symptoms to create lasting change.
I earned my doctorate from Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia and have trained at several colleges and community mental health agencies. My experience spans both rural and urban settings, which has given me perspective on the unique challenges people face in different environments. As a gay man living with chronic health issues, I am particularly sensitive to matters related to sexuality, diversity, and health, and I strive to bring that awareness into my work with every client.
I understand that connecting with a new provider can feel intimidating. My goal is to create a laid-back, safe, and supportive environment where you can confront challenges openly and begin making meaningful, sustainable changes in your life. I look forward to connecting with you and invite you to reach out to schedule an appointment when you feel ready.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

When working with clients who are seeking treatment for trauma or PTSD, my approach is client-centered and focuses on helping the client be able to move forward from the trauma in order to have a healthy and happier life. Many clients who seek counseling for PTSD and trauma do so because the trauma has kept them stuck emotionally and they are having a difficult time moving forward in at least one aspect of their life.
When working with clients who are seeking counseling for PTSD and trauma, my approach focuses primarily on being able to process trauma as well as using CBT approaches and mindfulness strategies to help manage intense emotions, as they often present with anxiety symptoms as well.
When a client is making meaningful progress with treatment for PTSD and trauma, they can typically acknowledge feeling more in control over their intrusive thoughts, are able to ground themselves emotionally, and experience less anxiety on a regular basis. The client would also note that they are able to redirect their thoughts and are able to work on having more peace in their lives. The trauma is also no longer causing them to feel stuck.
Clients who are in counseling to address PTSD and trauma can supplement their time in therapy by engaging in activities that help them feel a sense of calm and rest as well. Being able to journal, engage in mindfulness activities, as well as seek support from their loved ones if they are experiencing emotional discomfort is also encouraged.
To prepare for their first session, someone should identify goals they would want to work on as well as recognize that working through trauma is a process and can take time. Healing is a process; however, it is worth it for anyone who is seeking counseling.
At Thriveworks, Trauma/PTSD therapy involves dedicated efforts to address and navigate through past and/or recent traumatic events. Therapists specializing in trauma create a secure environment to process and heal from these experiences, aiming to reduce trauma-related symptoms and enhance overall quality of life.
Our Thriveworks providers use Trauma/PTSD therapy treatments like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing EMDR, CBT, and exposure therapy with the goal of helping clients process the traumatic events they have experienced so that they can to start feeling safe and secure again.
The symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can vary but often include:
The best way to overcome PTSD triggers is to seek the assistance of a professional therapist, such as those at Thriveworks, who can help you to understand and treat your PTSD triggers.
In most cases, a therapist who specializes in Trauma/PTSD therapy is the best type of mental health professional to address the symptoms of PTSD.
PTSD/trauma therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
If a client is working through a single traumatic event that occurred as an adult, trauma or PTSD therapy may only take a few months, but in general, it can take a year or more to effectively treat trauma symptoms and PTSD. The duration of treatment is highly dependent on the client and the severity of their symptoms.
The success rate of therapy for PTSD depends entirely on the individual’s symptoms, commitment to attending sessions, and personal abilities.
