I am a seasoned psychotherapist/family therapist with over 26 years of experience in alleviating and/or resolving a broad spectrum of psychological, behavioral, and emotional issues. Using scientifically proven treatment methods, I can help you to start improving your life today. I work with individuals, couples, families and groups and I work with people of all ages. I use a hybrid of cognitive-behavioral therapy/Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy combined with family systems therapy. I also incorporate Gestalt/experiential approaches, psychodrama approaches, client centered/Rogerian approaches and psychodynamic approaches into my therapeutic work. I can help you to effectively address your issues and concerns. I also can help you to become more aware of your strengths and potentials and to even identify and develop new strengths and potentials and to make significant changes in your self and in your life. Knowing yourself and being at peace with yourself will help you to have a more satisfying life and more satisfying relationships. Please do not judge your future by your present. Don't give the power to your negative thoughts to convince you that they have the final and unalterable say about you, about life and about reality in general. The future is full of beautiful possibilities and by choosing to work on addressing your problems you begin to make those possibilities come true. I can help you to do that. May you find peace and joy in your journey. Orlando

9 years offering treatment
I am a bilingual (English, Spanish) Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in Miami-Dade County, Florida. I also have a Master of Arts in Marital and Family Therapy. My experience comes from providing direct mental health services for children, teens, adults, and couples with a variety of presenting issues including anxiety, depression, relationship and/or family issues, grief, trauma, multicultural concerns/difficulties, coping with medical diagnoses, and gender/sexual identity. The therapeutic relationship is the foundation for progress throughout the course of services. That said, I approach psychotherapy through a biopsychosocial lens that encompasses the entirety of the individual. My clinical experience spans from working with adults diagnosed with chronic medical conditions, children/adolescents with interpersonal difficulties, academic difficulties, and adjustment issues, as well as couples experiencing relationship issues. Working in South Florida has provided me with the opportunity to work with individuals from a variety of different cultures and religions; thus, it is important for me to incorporate one’s cultural identity into mental health services. My experience providing mental health services ranges across settings. Although most of my work has been in hospitals and community mental health centers, I have worked in the school system, at rehabilitation jails, and in the community conducting in-home psychotherapy services. Given my background in systems, I truly believe that one’s environment is crucial in their mental health journey. My treatment modality/approach is predominantly Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I like to incorporate psychodynamic theory (Object-Relations) and/or family systems (Bowenian, Structural) depending on the individual and the presenting problem. At the end of the day, I believe that psychotherapy is a collaborative process and relationship in which you are the expert on you. My hope is that we can work towards identified goals and improved quality of life.

Hello my name is Kristin Rinehart. I am excited to offer counseling through BetterHelp because it gives access to counseling in different ways that traditional counseling does not. Reaching out for help for your health and wellness is so important and can be difficult to do for the first time. Good job for considering putting time into your self. Just a little about me: I obtained my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Otterbein College and Master of Social Work degree from The University of Pittsburgh. I have been a licensed independent social worker for 30 years. I am licensed in the state of Florida, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. I am passionate about treating clients of all ages struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, stress management and life transitions. I find helping others achieve peace and happiness to be the most rewarding part of the social work profession. I have worked in settings such as community mental health, crisis residential treatment, crisis intervention, school based counseling and integrated behavioral health in a Federally Qualified Health Center. My therapy style includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Time Line Therapy, Strength and Faith based approaches. I believe the most important aspect of a therapeutic relationship is for my clients to know they have someone on their team encouraging them to move beyond the past, live in the present while working toward reaching goals for the future. I am available for messaging, live chat and phone appointments at this time. I prefer to schedule directly with my clients so they get the appointment day and time that works best for their schedule. Video is provided as requested.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I require live sessions - chat, voice, or video - for the majority of our work together. I am available for live sessions in the evenings and on the weekends. Live sessions are typically 30-45 minutes in length. You can see my schedule using the schedule tab in your counseling page. Between live sessions, we can use the messaging system to discuss scheduling and outside assignments, share thoughts and questions that come up between sessions, and share and discuss journal entries (if you use that feature).
