About mental health counselor 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.

1,340 therapists match this page, all of whom name mental health counselor 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 LMHC mean and how is that different from other mental health licenses?

LMHC stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor. It indicates specialized training and a state license to provide counseling and psychotherapy. Compared with other licenses, LMHCs focus on counseling and therapeutic interventions. If license differences matter to you, check each profile for listed training, areas of focus, and approaches rather than assuming one title fits every need.

Can I work with an LMHC listed here if I live in Fort Lauderdale but want only online sessions?

Yes. Each LMHC listed holds a Florida license, which covers the whole state. That means they can provide online services to clients in Fort Lauderdale. Confirm the therapist’s comfort with fully remote work and any specific session formats they offer by reading the profile or contacting them through the directory.

What should I compare among LMHC profiles when choosing someone for anxiety or depression?

Compare stated specialties like anxiety or depression, therapy approaches (CBT, DBT, trauma-informed care), experience working with similar concerns, and any notes on age groups or identity-focused work. Also look for descriptions of session structure and the therapist’s communication style. Use those details to shortlist providers who seem aligned with your preferences.
