Robin Daleke

Therapist

I’m an eclectic down-home therapist with 20 years of experience in partnering with individuals on how to navigate through life’s many challenges. My approach to therapy is based on the client’s therapeutic experience. Therapy can shed light on ineffective behaviors, fixed beliefs, and negative ways of coping. I assist in promoting paths to move forward for individuals who are struggling with:

• anxiety
• depression
• grief
• life transitions
• trauma
• recovery

My approach is holistic, collaborative, strengths-based, and eclectic. I am also trained in EMDR.
I am currently taking new patients. To schedule an appointment, call Magnolia Counseling Clinic at 662-563-8703.
