About clinical social worker therapy for people in Fort Lauderdale

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 in Fort Lauderdale can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.

982 therapists match this page, all of whom name clinical social worker 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.

Therapy in Fort Lauderdale

Fort Lauderdale has a population of about 182,760. Local in-person availability varies and waiting lists are common, which is part of why state-wide online practice has grown. Nothing on this page depends on a therapist being near you.

Common questions

What does an LCSW do differently from other therapists?

An LCSW is trained in social work with clinical certification to provide psychotherapy, case management, and systems-focused care. They often address mental health alongside social, family, and community factors. When comparing profiles, note whether they emphasize psychotherapy models, care coordination, advocacy, or connections to community resources.

Can I choose an LCSW who specializes in my issue, like trauma or parenting?

Yes. Many LCSWs list specializations such as trauma, grief, family therapy, or parenting support in their profiles. Compare clinicians by stated areas of expertise, therapeutic methods, and populations served to find someone who focuses on the issue you want to address.

How do I know if an online LCSW is available to clients in Fort Lauderdale?

Profiles indicate whether a clinician is available to clients in Fort Lauderdale because they hold a Florida license. Look for statements about accepting clients in Fort Lauderdale or statewide teletherapy. If a profile is unclear, contact the clinician through the directory to confirm current online availability.
