Dr. Rubin specializes in helping adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety disorders (including OCD), depression, shame or guilt, negative self-judgments, perfectionism, grief, a sense of feeling overwhelmed, lost, or disconnected from themselves or others. Her aim is to help you increase psychological flexibility through mindfulness and evidence-based practices in the service of creating more space in your life to identify, connect to, and act in alignment with your own values. Dr. Rubin wants to help you build the life that you want even in the presence of struggle. She offers individual therapy. Dr. Rubin also specializes in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and other mindfulness-based 3rd wave cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT). These treatments have been consistently demonstrated to be very effective for a wide range of difficulties. They are also time sensitive, meaning she does not want you to be in therapy forever! She believes in creating an open, safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate therapeutic environment that is informed by structure to help you make the changes necessary to build the life you want. She also believes in an equally kind and direct stylistic approach, coupled with a strong emphasis on collaboration. Evidence-based care is central to her work. Dr. Rubin currently serves as an Assistant Clinical Professor at UCLA where she supervises Ph.D. students in ACT. She previously served as an Adjunct Professor and Clinical Supervisor at Columbia University where she trained Ph.D. students in 3rd wave CBT.
