About John

John Rubinov is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with nine years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

He frames therapy as a collaborative process that highlights each person's strengths and practical steps toward change, aiming to help clients feel more clear and confident in day-to-day living. Drawing on several evidence-informed approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and client-centered methods, Rubinov blends structured skill-building with compassionate listening.

He works with concerns ranging from self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, and anger to career challenges, compassion fatigue, and identity-related matters. Additional focus areas include family and relationship dynamics, substance-related problems, and experiences related to aging, neurodiversity, and alternative sexual cultures.

Fluent in English, Hebrew, and Russian, he accepts international clients and offers multiple remote formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences. Prospective clients are invited to begin by completing a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling sessions based on availability, with subscription-based sessions that can be canceled at any time.

Applying evidence-based approaches to online care

John integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaching practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT centers on clarifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility, helping people respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. He collaborates with clients to explore which methods feel most useful and adjusts strategies based on individual goals, preferences, and progress so treatment can remain practical and person-centered.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase access and fit busy lives. These formats allow flexible scheduling and ongoing support between appointments, making it easier to maintain consistency and apply new skills in daily routines.
