ABOUT DR. ROBERTSON
DR. SEAN ROBERTSON, PSYD
Doctor of Psychology, Internationally Acclaimed Behavior Coach and San Francisco Couples Counselor
Hello, I am Dr. Sean Robertson and I work exclusively as a couples counselor and sex coach for partners.
I know relationships can be hard, even though they’re also one of the most fulfilling parts of our life. I create an empathic space for learning and deep connection.
Over the last 12 years I’ve honed in on the most effective strategies for helping couples. I use a combination of Gottman method, attachment psychology, and behavior psychology methods to achieve the greatest success.
What is the Gottman Method?
The Gottman Method is a famous couples counseling modality that incorporates learning various relationship skills such as listening skills and learning how to negotiate needs.
What is behavior psychology?
Behavior psychology helps us understand how situations in our relationship activate beliefs, emotions, and coping behaviors. We also learn that we can shape our behaviors to be more aligned with our needs.
What is attachment psychology?
Due to early childhood experiences, we are oftentimes hardwired in different ways. These differences can have big impacts on how we behave in our romantic relationships as adults. I will help you identify your specific “attachment styles” and how to work with them in the relationship.
IN OUR COUPLES COUNSELING YOU WILL GAIN:
*BETTER UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR PARTNER
*A MORE HARMONIOUS RELATIONSHIP
*ABILITY TO KNOW AND EXPRESS YOUR NEEDS
*BETTER COMMUNICATION DURING CONFLICTS
*REKINDLING YOUR CONNECTION
COUPLES SEX COACHING AREAS:
*PERFORMANCE ANXIETY
*SEX ADDICTION
*SEXUALITY
*OPEN AND POLY RELATIONSHIPS
*KINK
The price of my services is $225 per 50 minute session. I offer a free 20 minute consultation call to help discover if my services are right for you.
Though I have a doctoral degree in clinical psychology my work as a couples counselor/sex coach does not involve diagnosing or treating clinical disorders and is therefore not reimbursed by insurance companies. I do all of my work online and I see people anywhere in the country. I work with all genders, sexualities, and racial make-ups.
I look forward to being able to help you and your loved one/s.
ONLINE PERSONILZED BEHAVIORAL COACHING
IS IT HARD TO KEEP YOUR APPOINTMENTS WITH YOUR THERAPIST OR LIFE COACH?
DO YOU TRAVEL FOR WORK?
ARE YOU SICK OF ADDING ONE MORE PLACE TO GET TO?
My coaching services are the solution. You can have your session from the comfort of your home or at the office on your lunch break, I work with individuals and partners from all over the world. All of my services are offered over online video chat. I have had clients who travel for work see me from hotels around the world or in their office in between meetings. My services work best for individuals who are motivated to make changes in their lives, but are challenged with finding the time or energy.
I am psychology doctor who works online as a behavioral coach. I can help you meet your goals in an effective and evidence-based approach that leads to fast and life changing positive benefits. -Dr. Robertson
I have years of formal training in the art of behavioral psychology, and I offer all my services over video chat so we can meet from anywhere you'd like. If those two things appeal to you, keep reading. I've worked with hundreds of clients to identify internal and external obstacles blocking their success, remove these obstacles, and put them on the path to achieving their goals. Some areas I work in are: professional success, relationship success, recovery success, health success, etc.
Behavioral psychology often gives people fast results. My coaching style integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, so we'll be looking at your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We'll also be very goal oriented and there will be homework. So clients must be highly motivated and meet regularly.
I work collaboratively and empathically with clients to encourage specific behaviors that support changes they seek to make. I have the advantage of having been extensively formally trained in many behavioral psychology approaches. I also look at the bigger picture and help clients assess where there are imbalances and can (optional) bring in aspects of Buddhist psychology.
Though I have a doctorate in clinical psychology, I choose to do coaching only, which means I do not provide diagnoses for clients or attempt to treat disorders. I chose this because I do not work from a pathology perspective or work with insurance companies. Clients who work with me need to have internet access capable of supporting video chat. I have been practicing for 10 years and welcome all genders/orientations/ethnicities.
