About Robbin
Robbin Bongiorno is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of practice in New York. She focuses on relationship challenges, family conflict, grief and loss, anger, and coping with life changes. Robbin aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where people can talk through difficult feelings and make practical changes.
Her approach is flexible and centered on each person's needs. She adapts conversation and planning to fit the situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. That can mean working on communication skills, managing anger, or creating steps to move through grief.
Robbin also addresses concerns such as abandonment, chronic pain or illness, and loneliness. She helps with issues around money, life purpose, and transitions like pregnancy or midlife change. Workplace stress and women's issues are additional areas she supports.
In sessions she focuses on clear goals and small, manageable steps. She talks through patterns that get in the way and suggests ways to try different behaviors between meetings. The aim is to build momentum so changes feel doable.
Taking a first step can feel daunting, and Robbin frames the work as a collaborative process. She supports people as they sort priorities, practice new skills, and make decisions that fit their life.
