Why choose Robyn Lingard?
Certified Gottman Couples Therapist: I am one of a select group of therapists trained and examined by the world renowned Gottman Institute in evidence-based couples therapy.
Access to Gottman Love Lab: I am one of the few clinicians in Australia authorized to offer couples a relationship assessment via the “Love Lab” – both clinical questionnaire and video evaluation. This more comprehensive assessment pinpoints the areas in which couples can achieve their greatest growth.
Discernment Counsellor: As a Discernment Counsellor, I offer particular support for couples who are uncertain about the future of their relationship. I assist these couples to make decisions with greater clarity and confidence about their options.
Experienced Presenter: I frequently present to my peers and the general public – including presentations to the ME/CFS Society SA; and the Australasia Gottman Institute Retreat for Certified Therapists.
Evidence-Based Approach: My approach to relationship and individual counselling is grounded in evidence-based methods, ensuring I provide current, effective, research-backed support. For example, Gottman research into stable relationships has been conducted over 50 years with 75 000 couples.
Curious Researcher: My own research into living with chronic illness has been internationally published and continued. In the early 2020’s, I also participated in two Gottman Institute studies around affair recovery and effectiveness of couples therapy.
I care: most importantly, I am a human being like you, surfing the highs and lows of life. And I believe we are all trying to do our best amid the less than ideal circumstances that life can sometimes bring across our paths.
