Robb Dolson

Couples navigating conflict, families trying to hold together through hard seasons, teenagers who feel misunderstood at home and school — these are the people Robb Dolson built his practice around. A Registered Clinical Counsellor based in Kamloops, BC, Robb works with children, youth, adults, couples, and families facing relationship breakdown, abuse, addiction, anxiety, and the kind of low-grade despair that comes from feeling constantly available to everyone online yet genuinely known by no one. He brings the same direct, grounded approach to each of these — no vague reassurances, just practical tools and a clear-eyed look at what is actually going on.

Central to Robb’s work is a Response-Based perspective: the struggles people bring to counselling cannot be separated from the wider circumstances — social, relational, structural — that shape them. Dignity is not a value he adds on; it is where he starts. He recognizes that when people are up against oppression, violence, or adversity, they are already doing something to preserve themselves, and counselling builds from that.

Robb also conducts Views of the Child Reports for families and courts, a process he considers a particular calling. Sessions are available in person, by phone, or online, and sliding-scale and pro-bono spots are held within his caseload for those facing financial barriers.
