Dr. Isaac Farin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, certified hypnotherapist, mindfulness practitioner, and spiritual counselor — and a proud Miami native, born and raised in the community he has spent nearly two decades serving. That is not a small thing. He knows this city, its people, its rhythms, and its particular brand of beautiful complexity from the inside out. When you walk into his office, you are not walking into somewhere generic. You are walking into something rooted.
Dr. Isaac holds a Ph.D. in Family Therapy from Nova Southeastern University and a Master's degree in both Marriage and Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling from Barry University. Over the course of nearly 20 years in the field, he has worked across an extraordinary range of settings — community mental health agencies, outpatient psychiatric centers, psychosocial rehabilitation programs, home-based family therapy, and the Florida court system, including a long-standing working relationship with Family Court Services in Miami. He has worked directly with individuals, couples, and families in crisis, supervised teams of therapists, and carried responsibility for the care of hundreds of families across Miami-Dade and Broward counties. That breadth of experience is not incidental — it is the foundation beneath everything he does in private practice today.
At his core, Dr. Isaac is an Ericksonian therapist — meaning he works from a deep belief in the innate wisdom and resourcefulness of every client. The role of the therapist, in his view, is not to direct or prescribe but to create the conditions in which a person's own inner capacity for healing can emerge. From that foundation, sessions may also draw on strength-based approaches, mindfulness, sports psychology, spiritual coaching, and psychedelic integration — whatever the moment and the person call for.
Dr. Isaac is the developer of Longboard Therapy® — a pioneering modality that takes the therapeutic process outdoors, using movement and flow as a doorway to presence, connection, and breakthrough. He has a deep passion for working with athletes and has spent years coaching football in his community — understanding firsthand that peak performance is never just physical. It is mental, emotional, and spiritual. He brings that same whole-person lens to every athlete he works with.
He is also the co-developer of the Mindful Psychedelics Integration Method (MPIM)™ and a founding voice behind Mindful Psychedelics LLC® — a harm reduction community and educational movement built around a belief he lives by every single day: life is the psychedelic journey, no substances required.
When he is not in the office, Dr. Isaac is in nature — traveling, getting into the woods, finding the stillness that only the outdoors can offer. He believes that healing does not happen only in therapy rooms. It happens wherever a person is present, awake, and willing to grow.
In His Own Words
“I became a therapist because I believe every person carries within them the capacity to heal, grow, and live a life that actually feels like theirs. My job is not to fix anyone — it is to walk alongside them long enough that they remember their own strength.
Miami made me. I grew up here, I trained here, I built my life and my practice here. I have worked with this community in some of its hardest moments — in homes, in courts, in psychiatric centers, on longboards. That experience lives in how I work every single day.
I am also a father, a husband, a football coach, an athlete, and someone who takes his own spiritual journey seriously. I spend time in nature, I travel, I get into the woods whenever I can — because stillness and movement are two of the greatest teachers I know. I bring all of that into the room with me.
Whether you are working through something painful, searching for something deeper, or simply ready for real change — I would love to connect.”
