Robert W. Poynter, III, MS, EdS, LPC

Mr. Poynter’s holistic approach involves the mind-body connection, neuroscience, neuro-biology, quantum mechanics, energy work, qigong, psychology, and how the mind and body are interrelated. He is trained and has experience with mindfulness-based stress response, breathwork, neurobiology, heart-brain coherence, heart rate variability, guided imagery, cognitive behavioral therapy, polyvagal theory, energy clearing, self compassion, and hypnotherapy. He assists individuals to “let go” of their automatic defenses and confront their inner struggles while reprogramming their narratives towards more understanding, self-acceptance, and self-compassion. He helps individuals gain more control of their lives while creating a safe and trusting environment for individuals to fully express themselves. Mr. Poynter’s intuition and sensitivity to emotions have helped shape his empathic understanding of others. He is very gentle with his approach, yet direct when his intuition informs him. In his spare time, he enjoys attending yoga classes, connecting with nature, camping, hiking, kayaking, attending wellness retreats, family trips, and more importantly spending quality time with his wife and son.
