Quotes about Robyn from trainees

I have always been super effective in solving problems, and to some extent, it worked for my clients. But after the workshop, I brought more of myself, my feelings, my humanness into the sessions, and I could see the humanness in them resonate too. I want to write this note to formally express how grateful I am about the impact Robyn has had on my life and work. Her existence is such a gift to this world and I am so lucky to have received it.

“Best workshop I have attended. Excellent presentation. Gained a lot personally and professionally.”

"Robyn embodied the ACT approach, very experienced and knowledgeable."

"Robyn is, by far, the best speaker and embodiment of ACT I've encountered."

"I became even more aware of the power of words... Thank you for the depth you brought to the Bootcamp. To me, you were the Bootcamp."

"I have already noticed shifts in my sessions with clients (getting me out of my ruts), and you helped me through probably the hardest week of my life in our real play with my son's health stuff."

"My dearest and most important 'tool' - drawing on 'The Heart of ACT' and the work we did in Zanzibar - is 'trusting my clinical human sense of whats going on in the room'. I find myself 'at home' doing this, like my intuition is wiser than my thinking."

"I experienced ACT as a fabulously flexible launchpad... you, Miranda, Diana and Steve each in your own way, showed us how you so inhabit the psychological processes, or they so inhabit you."

Robyn is such an inspiring person, I see her as work was magical and unique. A valuable gift to be able to experience this. She gave me many eye openers and the importance of direct, authentic, caring and loving way or working showed me what really matters. It resonated to me which made me feel that her way of working is a way I would love to integrate in my vision.
