About solution-focused 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 solution-focused 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 Solution-Focused Therapy and who might choose it?
Solution-Focused Therapy is a goal-oriented approach that focuses on identifying small, practical changes and building on existing strengths. People who want targeted, short-term support for specific problems, clearer steps toward goals, or a focus on what’s already working often choose this approach. Ask therapists how they adapt the method to your situation before deciding.
How can I tell from a profile if a therapist really uses Solution-Focused methods?
Look for descriptions mentioning goal setting, scaling questions, future-focused planning, strengths-based language, and brief interventions. Profiles that explain typical session structure, tools they use, or examples of goals are more likely to reflect regular use. You can also contact the therapist to ask for specifics about how they apply those techniques in online sessions.
Does a Florida licence let a therapist work with me no matter where I live in the state?
Yes. A Florida licence covers the whole state, so licensed therapists on this page can offer services to clients anywhere in Florida. Still compare therapists on experience, specialties, and whether they mention online work, then reach out to confirm they are currently accepting new clients and that their approach fits your needs.
