Gino has been an excellent therapist. He listens well and gives understandable and reassuring advice. Most importantly he makes it easy to come back every week for my therapy sessions.

My name is Gino Rubens and I'm a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida. *I do accept insurances as well for continued services* I am passionate to provide effective care to my clients. I have worked inpatient and outpatient with clients who struggle with addiction issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and mood/personality disorders. I enjoy helping individuals reconnect with themselves and their support system in order to experience a better quality of life and feel pleasure again. I understand everyone has their individual needs and I am here to help you help yourself through my experience and knowledge by digging deep and having difficult conversations with empathy and compassion. My goal is to connect with you and gain an understanding, from your perspective, in order to build effective treatment plans and deliver psychoeducation and tools with DBT, CBT, and Trauma-informed care.
Let's work together on our treatment plans and discuss what might be contributing to displeasure, anxiety, depression, isolation, and any other uncomfortable feeling you may be experiencing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
