Bruce D Robertson, LICSW

Bruce Robertson, LICSW, is a Behavioral Health Consultant to primary care providers. He offers education and training to patients to help them better control behaviors of concern and improve their quality of life. He also trains physicians on how to integrate this thinking into their own practice.

Bruce acknowledges stress as a double-edged sword; it activates us so we can control events but also neuro-physiologically impairs us when we cannot. Understanding how this process works and then learning to adjust our responses to these stressors is key. Bruce uses heart rate variability biofeedback to address reactive episodes as opportunities for change and gives patients nonpharmacological tools to increase their locus of control. He sees patients ages 16 and older.
