About Robin

Robin Aucoin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Mississippi with 16 years of experience working in the mental health field. She earned her degrees in psychology and counseling and has developed a practice shaped by trauma-informed work and a range of therapeutic methods.

Background and approach

Robin integrates practical techniques with a person-focused stance to help clients navigate anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and stress-related concerns. Her style blends evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with client-centered and narrative elements, and she also uses EMDR and mindfulness when appropriate.

This mix supports people facing complex issues including post-traumatic stress, body image and eating-related concerns, chronic illness and pain, and challenges tied to adoption or foster care. Robin emphasizes empathy, collaboration, and an individualized plan that reflects each client’s values and goals.

Clients can expect an interactive, strengths-based process that aims to restore meaning, reduce distress, and build coping skills. Robin’s work attends to both immediate symptom relief and longer-term growth, helping people move toward clearer purpose and improved daily functioning.

How evidence-based methods translate to online therapy

Robin often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and is useful for goal-oriented symptom relief and everyday coping.

She also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration to explore a person’s values and strengths. This approach supports emotional processing and helps clients feel heard as they work toward clarity and healing. When trauma is a focus, EMDR may be introduced to address distressing memories through structured processing pathways aimed at reducing intensity.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to select or blend methods based on needs, goals, and comfort level, adjusting course as progress is made. That teamwork helps ensure therapy fits the client rather than expecting the client to fit a single model.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule around work, school, and caregiving demands. These formats support regular contact and allow licensed professionals to provide ongoing guidance, skill practice, and emotional support without requiring in-person visits.
