Getting to know Robert Townsend

Robert Townsend is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina with three years of experience. He holds a Master of Social Work from Radford University and a Master of Divinity from Wake Forest University School of Divinity. Robert believes that the relationship between the client and therapist is one of the most powerful factors in successful therapy. Approaching the client with “unconditional positive regard” is of utmost importance to help clients feel comfortable working with a therapist. Along with a person-centered approach, he relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address many issues clients seek help for. Robert is also well versed in the spiritual concepts of many faiths, with mainstream Christianity and Buddhism being his strongest areas of expertise. He works with each client to formulate a plan of care that addresses their individual needs. In his spare time, Robert enjoys watching TV, walking, and spending time with his wife and two spoiled puppies. *Patients must reside in North Carolina for services.*
