Dr. Robin Bixler is Board Certified by The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and she specializes in providing outpatient Psychiatric care for adults. Dr. Bixler has experience treating a variety of mental health concerns with a special interest in mood and anxiety disorders. She treats multiple conditions including Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Adult ADHD.

Dr. Robin Bixler earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology from Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. She then completed her medical degree and graduated from Des Moines University Osteopathic Medical School in 2004. She began her Psychiatric training at The Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and served as a Chief Psychiatry Resident during her final year there. After completing her Psychiatry Residency in 2008 she moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota to practice outpatient adult psychiatry. She has worked for a large non- profit health care system and private practice clinics. In 2020 she moved to Florida with her family to continue working in private practice.

Dr. Bixler recognizes that everyone is unique. She partners with each individual client to help find an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment regimen.  This may include psychoeducation, lifestyle and behavioral changes, medication management and psychotherapy.  Usually, it is a combination of these things that will be the most effective. There are times when additional testing may be needed such as lab work, imaging, or psychological testing.  If this is the case, Dr. Bixler will help get these tests ordered and collaborate with a patient’s Primary Care Provider or other Clinician to get the proper testing completed in a timely manner.  She appreciates that the best approach to patient care is a team effort and each client is an integral part of the team to achieve the best successful outcome.
