Dr. Robert Lawson, a dedicated psychologist with a Ph.D., fosters a safe, quiet, and nurturing environment where clients can engage in honest and authentic conversations. He understands the importance of authenticity, emphasizing that while pride can be healthy, false pride may act as a barrier to self-disclosure and hinder the therapy process. Collaboratively, Dr. Lawson and his clients work to identify issues and co-create potential resolutions, insights, and behavioral interventions tailored to meet individual needs. For more philosophical or psychological concerns, he promotes the development of a relevant and evolved worldview that can assist clients in navigating their unique life situations. With a background as a humanitarian who has experienced personal challenges and engaged in profound contemplation, Dr. Lawson brings a solid work ethic to his therapeutic practice. Having taught psychology for 21 years at UNC Chapel Hill, he possesses a deep understanding of the field. Outside of his professional life, he finds peace and wisdom in the natural world, living immersed in the woods by the water.
