About Robin

I am passionate about supporting people; helping to bring forward the many positive qualities
that I intuitively see. And, to gently address the wounding we all carry inside.

I have a medical background. I spent years in the medical field until I realized that medicine
alone did not fully meet my longing to help people. My main complaint was that there was never
enough time for me to really sit and listen to patients. I have always been a compassionate
listener. Even as a child, I enjoyed hearing people's stories. I intuitively see what goes on behind
the story -- the stumbling blocks, the self doubt, and the hurt. I often see what specifically can
work to help heal those areas in a person’s life. I say ‘can work’ because it takes a willingness to
make change happen in our lives.

I have spent many years studying energy medicine. I am excited by the concept that we create
our own reality and I believe because of this, we can heal ourselves. I felt a longing to work with
people -- reaching those core issues we all long to be free of. I could not imagine how I would be
able to bring my gift of healing into the world. I have since learned that those things we are meant
to do in life have a way of finding us.

In 1996, my mother had a very sudden stroke and was dying. She was just 53 and in perfect
health. As she died, I witnessed a process going on inside her that snapped me into the reality
that we only have this moment. We can’t know what will happen in the next one. I could not
afford to waste precious moments wishing that we could have things be different. I prayed to
God that He use me for my unique purpose and let me express what I have to offer in the world.
Soon I began to study with different healers, teachers, and put in my own share of time seeing
various therapists and healers, as well as an acupuncturist, nutritionist, chiropractor, and
massage therapist. You name it, I have tried it! Let me tell you, not all of those experiences were
great. At times, I really had to laugh about it. Still, I learned something from each one, and I am
fond of saying that sometimes the worst experience makes the best teacher!

I studied Energy Medicine and Healing Science at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, which
is a specialized college for the study of hands-on healing techniques with a strong focus on
spiritual and psychological processes. Most recently, I completed a three year program at the
Center for Intentional Living, which is a learning community open to health care professionals
and individuals interested in psychological and spiritual growth and personal transformation. I
opened my healing practice in 2001. I am an ordained minister, and hold a Bachelor of Science
degree from Loyola University, Chicago. I love my calling. It is not a job, it is a passion. Each
person I work with is a gift, and the healing process I witness in them a miracle.

Robin lives with her husband
and their three dogs
Winston, Charlie, and Rocky.
