About John
John Rubinov is a Florida LMHC with nine years of clinical experience. He works with adults coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem concerns, and issues around identity and intimacy, including LGBT-related concerns and guilt and shame.
He uses straightforward conversation and practical tools to help people manage everyday struggles. Sessions focus on what feels most urgent, such as overwhelm at work, repeated self-criticism, or trouble with relationships. He listens and helps clients notice patterns that keep them stuck.
John draws on a mix of acceptance and commitment work, cognitive behavioral ideas, client-centered listening, existential reflection, and mindfulness practices. That blend is used to help clients shift unhelpful thoughts, clarify values, and make small behavioral changes.
He also works with people facing addiction, grief, ADHD-related challenges, anger, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. Other focus areas he offers include family of origin issues, forgiveness, abandonment, and intimacy-related concerns. Sessions may include practical exercises, values clarification, and present-moment awareness practices.
John speaks English, Hebrew, and Russian and accepts international clients. He practices in Florida as an LMHC. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site’s booking flow.
How his approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, while learning to live with difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for shame, guilt, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical strategies for shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Mindfulness-based practices teach simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting swept away by them. These practices can help reduce reactivity and create options when guilt or shame surfaces.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and adjust those methods over time. That means trying different exercises and checking in about what is helpful.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins during a work break, not needing to travel, or avoiding camera use when that helps someone stay focused. Licensed professionals can use a range of approaches remotely to support practical changes and clearer thinking.
