Thoughtful, relational therapy for women navigating change, motherhood, and emotional overwhelm.

About Robin Chilton

Robin Chilton is a Licensed Master Social Worker who specializes in supporting women through life transitions, motherhood, and the often unspoken emotional terrain that accompanies change. She works with individuals experiencing anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, infertility, loss, perinatal and postpartum mood disorders, and the evolving challenges of parenting across stages of life.

Her clinical style is collaborative, attuned, and grounded in psychodynamic and relational frameworks. Robin integrates cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing when helpful, approaching symptoms not as problems to eliminate but as meaningful signals that deserve careful listening and understanding.

Robin brings extensive experience in early childhood mental health, trauma-informed care, and family systems. In therapy, she offers a steady, reflective space where clients can explore emotional patterns, build insight, and develop greater confidence in navigating life’s demands, feeling more connected to themselves and less alone in the process.
