About Robyn
Robyn Costanzo is a New York based licensed clinical social worker with ten years of practice experience. She focuses on helping people juggle work, relationships, and mood so they can feel more capable in daily life. Robyn often sees clients who are navigating stress and anxiety related to their careers and personal lives.
She started a independent practice in Manhattan in 2009 after working in a range of settings from major medical centers to community agencies.
Background and approach
Robyn expanded geographically before shifting to remote work to better fit clients with busy schedules. Her background includes a three year post graduate certificate in psychoanalytic psychotherapy and ongoing participation in supervision and study groups. Robyn uses listening and thoughtful intervention to help people understand patterns that get in the way of feeling well.
She works with issues such as relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, addictions, and coping with life changes. Her approach aims to make emotional concerns easier to talk about and manage. Sessions are practical and conversational.
Robyn helps people try new ways of handling stress at work, set boundaries in relationships, and build self esteem. She also supports people dealing with trauma, intimacy-related issues, and the effects of depression. People choose Robyn when they want a steady, experienced clinician who balances depth with real-world problem solving.
She welcomes clients from New York and international locations and offers multiple remote session formats to match different needs.
Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care
Robyn draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques combined with relational attention. One approach she uses emphasizes careful, empathic listening to help people identify repeating patterns in relationships and work life; this helps make sense of feelings and behavior. Another approach focuses on practical coping skills to manage anxiety and stress, such as short practices for grounding, boundary-setting, and changing unhelpful routines.Finding the right mix of approaches is something she does together with each person. Robyn assesses needs, goals, and preferences in early sessions and adjusts techniques as therapy progresses. That collaborative process helps ensure the work fits day-to-day life as well as deeper goals.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for a fuller conversation when schedules allow. Phone sessions can fit into a commute break or a tight workday. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, quick coaching, or staying connected between longer sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while managing a busy schedule.
