About John

John Rubinov is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, and identity questions. He works to make sessions feel practical and down to earth, so you can take small steps that add up. John speaks English, Hebrew, and Russian and practices in Florida.

He draws on approaches that help people notice what matters, change unhelpful patterns, and build clearer daily routines. Sessions often include straightforward tools for managing strong emotions, reducing worry, and addressing relationship or career pressures. He also supports people coping with grief, compassion fatigue, and life changes that follow disasters.

John has nine years of clinical experience and uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, existential reflection, and a client-centered stance. That mix lets him tailor work to what feels useful for each person rather than following a single script.

In the room he aims for a calm, direct style. He listens for what is getting in the way and offers small experiments and skills people can try between sessions. The goal is clearer thinking, steadier mood, and stronger choices.

To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule appointments according to the therapist's availability. Payment is handled through a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and international clients are accepted.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then pick actions that match their values. It can aid with anxiety, low mood, and living through difficult changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering clear strategies for reducing worry, improving sleep, or addressing substance use. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy, giving people a space to name what matters and decide next steps at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will choose or blend methods that feel most useful and practical for daily life.

Confirm current session options before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow for steady check-ins during periods of change. Some people prefer a video visit for face-to-face connection, while others choose shorter calls or different arrangements for quieter or lower-bandwidth sessions. The focus is on making therapy workable so skills and insight transfer into everyday routines.
