About grief therapy for people in Jacksonville
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 Jacksonville can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.
1,552 therapists match this page, all of whom name grief 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 Jacksonville
Jacksonville has a population of about 949,611. 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
How do I choose a grief therapist from this list?
Start by noting the types of grief each therapist mentions, such as loss of a partner, child, or pet, or complicated grief. Compare their stated approaches, like CBT or meaning-centered therapy, and read profiles for experience with similar situations. Consider communication style and whether you prefer structured or open-ended work.
Can I work with a therapist here for grief related to long-term illness or anticipatory loss?
Yes. Many therapists who list grief as a specialty also work with anticipatory grief and loss tied to chronic or terminal illness. Look for profiles that explicitly mention anticipatory grief, caregiving stress, or illness-related loss to find someone familiar with these dynamics.
What should I ask a grief therapist at my first session or intake?
Ask about their experience with cases like yours, the approaches they use for grief, and what a typical session looks like. You can also ask how they handle intense emotions, whether they offer coping strategies between sessions, and how they define progress in grief work.
