Robynne OByrne
Psychologist, Ph.D.
During my training in graduate school, I specialized in Child and Adolescent Development. I have worked with children of all ages and worked as the Director of Counseling for 3 years at a private high school in Marin County. I have always found working with children and teenagers especially gratifying. This is a particularly challenging time to be a young person. There are so many issues that young people face - fears about climate change, politics, the economy. Social media and digital addiction only make things worse. There is an epidemic of anxiety and depression among young people and now more than ever do I feel the desire to help the youth of today develop the resilience to face life's challenges. My extensive experiences working with children and adolescents, as well as my experiences as the parent of two young adults allows me to make deep and meaningful connections with my young clients.

Santa Rosa is the largest city in California's Sonoma County and the hub of the North Bay wine country region, and its mental health landscape has been profoundly shaped by the 2017 Tubbs Fire and subsequent wildfires, which destroyed thousands of homes and left lasting trauma for many residents. Wildfire-related PTSD, grief, climate anxiety, and the stress of community rebuilding remain ongoing therapy concerns alongside the broader mental health needs of a mid-sized California city. Sonoma County Behavioral Health provides public mental health services, while a well-developed private therapy sector serves professionals in the wine, healthcare, and tech industries. Many therapists in the Santa Rosa area have developed particular expertise in disaster trauma and environmental grief, reflecting the distinctive challenges of living in a region with elevated wildfire risk.
