Hello, I'm Trinell Robertson, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. With more than 15 years of experience in healthcare, I have learned that caring for the whole person means recognizing that behind every diagnosis is a unique individual with their own story, experiences, strengths, and challenges. Having had the privilege of caring for individuals across many stages of life, I have developed a deep understanding of the connection between physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life.
Whether you are struggling to manage anxiety, depression or trauma, experiencing difficulty with sleep or mood, or trying to find your way through a challenging season of life, you do not have to navigate it alone. I am committed to walking alongside you with compassion, respect, and understanding as you work toward balance, growth, and healing.
Most importantly, you do not have to navigate life's challenges alone. If you have been waiting for the right time to prioritize your mental health, let this be your reminder that it is okay to ask for help. I look forward to creating a safe space to help you feel more like yourself again. You are worthy of care, healing, and a meaningful life.

I strive to create a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel genuinely understood, empowered to embrace their authentic selves, and supported in navigating life’s challenges with greater confidence and self-compassion.
I’m a compassionate mental health therapist who believes that healing begins with feeling truly seen, heard, and understood. As an Associate Professional Counselor (APC), I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University and my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Waldorf University, graduating Magna cum laude. I typically work with children, adolescents, and adults as they navigate anxiety, depression, stress, emotional overwhelm, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, life transitions, and many moments when life simply feels like too much.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and person-centered. I believe meaningful progress happens when clients feel safe enough to be honest, understood without judgment, and empowered to take an active role in their healing. I draw from evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing, tailored to each client’s needs.
If you’ve been carrying more than you feel able to handle, please know that you don’t have to navigate it all alone. You deserve a space where you feel safe, heard, and accepted exactly as you are. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward greater healing and self-compassion. When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment.

At Thriveworks, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) primarily concentrates on assisting individuals in emotion regulation, enhancing interpersonal relationships, and acquiring effective coping strategies for managing stress and emotional difficulties.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) targets your personal challenges. You may work with your DBT therapist to maintain diary cards to monitor progress, emphasizing validation and support in the therapeutic relationship. DBT follows a stage-based approach, prioritizing crisis reduction initially and life satisfaction.
DBT was initially developed to address the needs of individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, its versatile approach has enabled its application to a wide range of mental health conditions, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, stress, and anger issues.
The 4 pillars of DBT are mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) have distinct purposes and aren’t inherently superior or inferior to one another. DBT is most effective for managing emotional regulation, personality disorders, and interpersonal challenges, while EMDR is specifically tailored for individuals with trauma-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) with therapists at Thriveworks in Columbus, GA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of a standard DBT program is typically around 24 weeks, which is roughly six months. The actual number of sessions will vary depending on the issues you wish to address.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
