Robert Novickas
Marriage & Family Therapist Associate

I am a highly empathetic and attuned male therapist. I hope to guide you on a personal therapeutic journey, on which we can begin improving your relationship and quality of life by thoughtfully exploring your intricate inner worlds and unique history. We will do so together in a non-judgmental space fostered by unconditional positive regard, acceptance and deep empathy. I stand by the statement, "When couples are in conflict it's rarely about the dishes." I take a broad emotionally focused therapy approach to couples work, and believe healing begins through active listening, identification of one's own feelings and the exploration of life before the relationship.

I also merge psychotherapy, mindfulness and somatic work in healing trauma. I have an interest in identifying social media addiction and its effects on one's mood, identity, and relationships. I enjoy working with individuals and couples going through major life transitions, including graduating from high school or college, beginning a new job or changing careers, marriage, parenthood, separation divorce, death of a loved one, and other moments in life that may feel overwhelming, intimidating or lonely.
