About relationship 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.
1,880 therapists match this page, all of whom name relationship 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
Can I see a therapist listed here for couples work if my partner lives in another Florida city?
Yes. A Florida license covers the whole state, so therapists listed here can work with partners in different Florida cities. Check each therapist’s profile to confirm they offer couples or partner sessions online and to learn how they handle sessions when participants are in separate locations.
How do therapists listed here typically approach relationship problems like trust or communication?
Therapists who list relationship work may use a range of approaches such as emotion-focused therapy, Gottman-informed techniques, behavioral interventions, or attachment-based work. Profiles usually note primary modalities and areas of focus so you can compare which therapeutic style aligns with the issues you want to address.
Should I look for a therapist who specifically lists experience with nontraditional relationships?
If your relationship is nontraditional—polyamory, open relationships, or non-binary partners—look for therapists who explicitly mention experience with those dynamics. Profiles that note experience with diverse relationship structures or LGBTQ+ clients can indicate greater familiarity with the specific challenges and communication patterns you may face.
