About Robin

Robin Behar is a Florida LMHC with 33 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship strains, parenting concerns, mood and anxiety problems, and the practical stresses that come with life transitions. Robin lists work with trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue among her areas of practice.

She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). Sessions are conversational and direct. She aims to help people sort through what is happening at home and find clearer next steps.

Robin has a long history of working with a broad range of concerns. That includes parenting challenges, blended family questions, adoption and foster care matters, caregiving stress, and the effects of domestic violence or abandonment. She also addresses body image, eating and food-related issues, cancer-related stress, and career-related transitions.

Her practice has included adjunctive work with animals for clients who might benefit from that kind of experience. She also has provided supervision to emerging mental health counselors. Robin emphasizes practical strategies alongside emotional work so people can use what they learn between sessions.

People who come to Robin can expect a conversational style focused on clear goals. She invites clients to set pace and priorities. To begin, readers are encouraged to follow the site's online therapy process to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working together online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take practical steps toward them while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current interactions; it can help with intimacy issues and recurring relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods fit best based on the person's goals, history, and daily life. That choice can evolve over time as needs change and new priorities emerge.

Session format details are not listed here, so confirm current online session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt interventions so people can practice skills between sessions and apply them in real-life household situations.
