About depression 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.

2,162 therapists match this page, all of whom name depression 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

How do I tell if a therapist on this page has experience treating depressive disorders?

Look for profiles that list depression, major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder, or mood disorders among their specialties. Also check for references to evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral activation, interpersonal therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which are commonly used for depression.

Can I work with a therapist here if I live in any Florida city or county?

Yes. A Florida license covers the whole state, so therapists listed here can accept clients from any city or county in Florida for online services. You do not need to match city or county to connect; focus instead on clinical fit and therapeutic approach.

What should I ask a therapist before starting therapy for depression?

Ask about their experience treating depression, the treatment approaches they use, session format (video or phone), typical goals and how progress is tracked, and whether they work with co-occurring issues like anxiety or sleep problems. Clarify anything about crisis management and how to reach them between sessions if needed.
