Robin Behar , LMHC

Robin Behar is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 33 years of experience. As an LMHC she holds credentials to provide psychotherapy and counseling services to individuals and couples, and she brings decades of hands-on work with a broad range of concerns.

In private practice Robin offers individual and couples therapy across the lifespan and provides supervision to emerging mental health counselors. Her work can include animal-assisted experiences with horses and dogs for clients who may benefit from that type of therapeutic support. Over her career she has addressed issues such as relationship and family conflicts, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, ADHD, stress and coping with life changes, intimacy-related issues, anger, career difficulties, compassion fatigue, and related areas.

Her counseling style is warm, interactive, and collaborative. She emphasizes working at each person’s pace with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she avoids stigmatizing labels. Robin integrates a range of therapeutic methods, including cognitive-behavioral techniques, humanistic and psychodynamic influences, art-based interventions, and life coaching, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each client’s unique needs and goals.

Robin encourages those ready to pursue a more fulfilling and balanced life to consider reaching out for guidance and support as they take the first steps toward change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Robin integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy into her work. ACT helps clients clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility by teaching practical strategies for living with difficult thoughts and feelings - it is often useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating and emotional bonds formed in relationships, helping people address issues like intimacy, trust, abandonment, and family dynamics. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, giving clients a supportive space to explore self-esteem, identity, and personal goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Licensed professionals and therapists commonly blend methods to match each person’s needs; Robin works collaboratively with clients to determine which tools and strategies best fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone, as well as live chat and text-based messaging, allow clients to access care from different locations and schedules. These options make it easier to maintain consistency in treatment, manage busy lives, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working toward therapeutic goals.
