About client-centered therapy therapy in Florida

Everyone listed on this page holds a licence to practise in Florida and works online. That matters more than it sounds: a licence is issued by the state, not by a city, so a therapist is available to anyone in Florida regardless of how far away they are. Someone outside a major metro can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.

2,548 therapists match this page, all of whom name client-centered therapy among the areas they work with. Fifteen are shown above. The list changes between pages, so it is worth looking at more than one if none of these feels like a fit.

What to compare

  • Credential. LMHC, LCSW and LMFT are different training routes to licensed practice in Florida, all overseen by the Florida Department of Health's Board of Clinical Social Work, Marriage & Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling. None outranks the others; they shape emphasis rather than quality.
  • Years in practice. Shown for every therapist here. More experience is not automatically better, but it is a fair proxy for how much of a given problem someone has seen.
  • What else they work with. A therapist whose other focus areas overlap with your situation is usually a better starting point than one whose listed areas stop at the single thing you searched for.
  • Approach. CBT, psychodynamic, solution-focused and the rest describe how sessions tend to run. If you have tried therapy before and it did not suit you, changing approach is often more useful than changing therapist.
  • Language. Shown where a therapist offers sessions in more than English.

How online sessions work

Sessions run by video or by messaging, arranged through our partner platform rather than booked directly with the therapist. There is no travel and no waiting room, which for most people is the difference between starting and not starting. Pricing is set by the platform and shown before you commit.

Common questions

What is Client-Centered Therapy and how does it shape a therapist’s approach?

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive stance where the therapist prioritizes understanding your perspective. Therapists who use this approach focus on empathy, active listening, and supporting your self-directed growth. Expect a collaborative dynamic rather than step-by-step coaching or directive techniques.

How should I compare therapists who use Client-Centered Therapy with those who use other approaches?

Compare how therapists integrate Client-Centered Therapy with other methods. Some blend it with CBT, trauma-informed care, or mindfulness. Look for notes about who they typically work with and how active or exploratory their sessions are. Reviews and profiles can help indicate whether their balance of listening and guidance matches your needs.

Can Client-Centered Therapy help with specific issues like anxiety or relationship problems?

Client-Centered Therapy can support many concerns by fostering self-understanding and emotional processing. Therapists often combine it with targeted tools when addressing conditions like anxiety or relationship stress. Read each therapist’s specialties to see if they mention experience with your particular concern and any complementary approaches they use.
