Rob joined Rawhide in June 2021 as a therapist.

He earned his master’s degree in educational psychology with an emphasis in clinical mental health counseling and his bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

Before Rawhide, Rob served 5 years of active duty in the United States Air Force. Following Rob’s military service, he worked in corporate IT. He completed his 700-hour internship at the UW-Oshkosh counseling center, providing individual and group therapies as well as psychoeducation to a diverse group of clients.

At Rawhide, Rob provides youth, adult, family and group therapy, using Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) to youth and families at Rawhide. Rob’s approach to therapy allows the client to develop skills that work best for their individual needs.

“As I was looking for opportunities to maximize my skill set as a therapist, I gravitated toward Rawhide and their creative approach to therapy. I was excited to learn how the team environment at Rawhide provides every therapist with the tools to help deliver the best experience possible for the client. The team approach at Rawhide provides each client an excellent platform for success.”

Mental health is an ongoing process, and sometimes it can feel crushing. Maybe you’ve been feeling unwell for a while, maybe it’s a brand new feeling for you, or maybe it comes and goes over time. Wherever you are in your process, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I opened Hold Fast Counseling Services, LLC to collaborate with clients to build awareness and insights, fortify internal and relational connections, develop meaning in the intersections of our experiences and identities, support development and expression of gratitude and joy, and flourish.

I’m a heartspace, loves to laugh, lust for life, full range of ugly and beauty, true-blue kind of person and provider. I am hopeful that together we can discover healthier and truer ways of living, keep hope alive, live with humor and humility, and hold fast to your dreams and authentic self.

Empowerment is vital in your mental wellness journey. Working as a team in therapy with me, you will lead by setting your boundaries, pace, and goals, and I will support with compassion, strength building, and genuine feedback. If you’re interested and ready to embark on this journey together, reach out to me today!
