Hi, I’m Michelle Robison, MSW, LCSW, I am a telehealth therapist in Illinois.
You’ve lost your sparkle. You’ve been pulled under by life’s rip currents and natural disasters. There are days you can barely drag yourself out of bed for work, and once you get there you want to rip your hair out! You keep trying harder and harder but feel like you are in a pit you can’t get out of. You wonder how did I get here?
You know why I know all of this? I was there too. I fought so hard to be superwoman and I was doing the best I could but deep down I believed I was never gonna be enough. Have enough. I thought I would never be able to get all my stuff together and figure it out! Thank goodness I no longer believe that being a superwoman is possible or frankly even necessary.
In the last 10 years, I’ve confronted those rip currents and natural disasters. I changed jobs, moved across the country, sent kids off to college, faced my husband’s cancer diagnosis, and buried my mother all while I led a nursing home through the last 4 years of Covid! I wish this was all made up! So…Ya… I totally get why the sparkle is not shining as bright as it once did!

Here’s what else I did amidst all this upheaval! I transformed myself with exercise and a 90-pound weight loss, I learned that I don’t need to be superwoman, and I got that sparkle back with an upgrade and it’s brighter and badder than ever. I know and believe that you can too. The precious soul you are is still there and you don’t have to do it alone. I’ll be there as you dig in and unpack it all. Let’s find that spark and light it up to help you regain, rediscover, and reimagine yourself. It’s never too late!
So that’s my story along with over 25 years of experience and training as a therapist. I practice from an attachment-based, trauma-informed perspective using models such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP), and a Family Systems approach. I can help you learn how to get started, remove roadblocks and be the person you were always meant to be. Let’s get you fired back up and ready to realize your potential.
