About Robin
Robin Aucoin is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, practicing in Mississippi with 16 years in the mental health field. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and anger. Robin also addresses trauma and abuse and helps clients wrestling with self-esteem, life changes, and career concerns.
She trained at William Carey University where she earned a Bachelor of Science in psychology and a Master of Science in counseling psychology. Over her career she has supported people through mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, eating and food-related issues, and self-harm. Her background includes work with adoption and foster care concerns, body image, chronic illness and pain, and survivors of sexual assault and abuse.
Robin uses a conversational, client-centered approach in sessions. She draws on practical methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to address thought patterns and daily habits. When trauma is involved she may incorporate trauma-focused methods and EMDR-informed strategies to help process distressing memories.
Sessions focus on clear goals and step-by-step plans. Clients can expect to talk through what’s happening now, identify patterns that fuel anger or anxiety, and practice small skills for responding differently. She also uses narrative therapy ideas to help people reframe difficult experiences and make sense of their story.
Robin works with a wide range of concerns including compassion fatigue, isolation, life purpose, and issues common to young adults and women. Sessions are offered in English and she does not currently accept international clients.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflection. The therapist follows the client's lead, helps clarify goals, and supports practical problem solving for everyday situations like anger or work stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors feed emotions. In sessions clients identify unhelpful thinking, test new ideas, and practice small behavior changes that reduce reactivity and improve mood.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, involves guided processing of distressing memories. It is used when trauma or past events keep causing strong reactions and intrusive memories.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will work collaboratively to pick methods that match the client’s goals, needs, and comfort level. That might mean trying a skill-based CBT exercise one week and returning to narrative or trauma-focused work the next.
If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online options can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can adapt mindfulness exercises, CBT worksheets, and trauma-focused conversations to remote sessions so the work stays practical and focused.
