About
Gino Rubens is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who is committed to providing effective, supportive care. He has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings with people navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and mood and personality disorders.

Gino recognizes that each person brings a unique history, set of needs, and goals to therapy. He aims to meet clients with empathy and compassion while also being willing to explore difficult topics through honest, meaningful conversation. By taking time to understand each client from their perspective, he collaborates on thoughtful treatment planning and offers practical psychoeducation and skills drawn from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and trauma-informed care.

The work is collaborative and focused on helping clients better understand their patterns, build coping tools, and take steps that support lasting change.

Evidence-based tools, delivered online in a supportive way
Gino Rubens draws from structured, skills-focused approaches that translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients notice how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another, then practice new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) builds practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful when feelings become intense or hard to manage. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and developing psychological flexibility, supporting clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from what matters most.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Gino collaborates with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and current challenges, then adjusts the plan over time so therapy feels relevant and workable. Many people benefit from a blend of education, reflection, and concrete tools they can practice between sessions.
Online therapy also offers flexibility in how support happens. Clients can meet by video call or phone session, or use live chat and text-based messaging when that format feels more accessible. This range of options can make it easier to stay consistent, fit therapy into a busy schedule, and keep momentum between sessions.
