Living Education eFocus News talked with Dr. Marva M. Robinson, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist about the impact of violence on the children of Ferguson, Missouri.
Dr. Marva M. Robinson is the oldest child of Marva J. Robinson and G. Preston Gridiron. Born to an ambitious mother in St. Louis, Mo, she was quickly exposed to sports, arts, and theatre at a young age. She received her high school diploma from Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day school and immediately went on to pursue her dream of becoming a Psychologist. She completed her undergraduate studies at Saint Louis University, graduating with magnum cum laude honors. She pursued her doctoral studies in Clinical Psychology at Nova Southeastern University where she graduated with a specialization in Forensics and a focus in Child, Adolescent and Family Psychology.
She is the proud mother of one son, Preston, whom she credits as her biggest teacher. While she enjoys the moments of motherhood, she is passionate about her career as a psychologist. Working full time for a St. Louis based health center, Dr. Robinson continues to work with an underserved population. However, her passion for forensics, consultation and psychotherapy beyond the walls of her office propelled her to begin her own private practice.
