About Us
A Note From Dr. Michael Rubino
I specialize in numerous issues but especially children and teens. I believe in working with my patients. When you come to my office you trust me with your life or your's child life and I take this trust very seriously, I want to work with you as a team so you feel comfortable to ask questions or make suggestions as needed. Most people are coming to therapy for stressful reasons and I am aware of this fact and I am ready to help. I treat you with the respect and the dignity that you are entitled to as a human being. I am kind in how I work but I am also direct and I am very honest. I never lie to my patients. You expect me to do a job and I do my best to get the job done because that is why you are coming to me.
My specialties are: children, teens, ODD, PTSD, PDD, ADHD, OCD, and Bipolar Disorder. I am certified in anger management by the State and certified to Level 2 in EMDR., I also handle high conflict divorces, custody issues and I have been appointed as a 730 Court Expert and Expert witness. Also I have been Court approved as a therapist for children experiencing divorce or other issues and as a Therapeutic Supervisor. I also work with Wevorce, in San Francisco, to help facilitate meditations. Mediation costs less than divorces and it is better for children. Mediation increase the likelihood that parents will coparent after ending the marriage. Additional I treat anxiety disorders, cutting and self-mutilating behaviors, suicide, victims of physical/sexual abuse, porn and sexual addiction.
I am also on the national advisory board for Street Soldiers, now referred to as Alive and Free, and I have taught at John F. Kennedy University. I have appeared on local and national television and radio shows as an expert in treating teenagers. I also work with the group Challenge Day and use some of their techniques.
These are some basic details about my work. If you want more or have additional questions, please contact me and I will be happy to answer your questions.
I look forward to working with you.
