Robin has specialized training and expertise in the area of sexuality and relationships. Her program of research includes sexual health and wellbeing, sexual desire and sexual problems, sexual arousal and sexual pleasure, and sexual communication and relationships. She draws upon this work to help clients develop the skills and tools to better understand and enhance their sexual experiences. She believes our sexuality and relationships are integrally tied to our emotional and psychological wellbeing and that all of us have the right to, and the capacity for, positive sexual experiences.
When she is not at Bliss, she can be found sitting around a table with fellow researchers at local coffee shops, trying to develop a better understanding of factors that influence individual and relational wellbeing. In her off hours, she enjoys time exploring the many nearby trails with her family and dogs.
