About Robin

Robin Behar brings a practical, evidence-informed approach to psychotherapy, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with humanistic and attachment-informed perspectives.

Background and approach

As a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (FL LMHC MH4433) with 33 years of experience, she combines structured strategies and empathic listening to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, grief, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD. Her work also covers relationship and parenting challenges, career and coaching goals, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue.

Her style is warm and collaborative, emphasizing respect, sensitivity, and a tailored plan that reflects each person’s circumstances and goals. Robin draws on approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered techniques to help clients build coping skills, improve communication, and navigate life transitions.

Located in Florida, she offers clinical guidance informed by decades of practice and adapts her methods to suit individual needs without relying on stigmatizing labels.

Approaches That Guide Online Care

Robin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors through evidence-informed exercises and goal-focused work that often fits well with short-term goals.

She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which emphasizes mindful acceptance of difficult emotions while clarifying personal values and committed action. ACT can be useful for people coping with chronic stress, life transitions, or ongoing emotional pain. Attachment-based ideas inform her work on relationships and intimacy by exploring patterns of connection and safety in close relationships.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process; the therapist and client work together to determine which methods match the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, and they revise the plan as progress is tracked. Robin adapts exercises and conversation styles so therapy feels personally relevant and achievable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and access from different locations. These options allow clients to engage in focused CBT or ACT exercises, process emotions with attachment-informed guidance, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible.
