About marriage and family therapist therapy for people in Miami Gardens

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 Miami Gardens can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.

174 therapists match this page, all of whom name marriage and family therapist 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 Miami Gardens

Miami Gardens has a population of about 111,640. 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 an LMFT do differently from other therapists?

An LMFT emphasizes relationships, family systems, and how people interact within those systems. They often work with couples, parents, and extended-family issues. Expect a focus on patterns, roles, boundaries, and communication. If your main concerns involve partnerships, parenting, blended families, or family conflicts, an LMFT’s training is tailored to those areas.

Can I work with an LMFT if I live in Miami Gardens even though they are online?

Yes. A Florida license covers the whole state, so therapists who are licensed in Florida can provide services to clients in Miami Gardens online. Check each profile for stated availability and treatment areas to find someone whose approach, specialties, and communication style match what you’re looking for.

How should I compare LMFT profiles to pick the right fit?

Look at listed specialties (couples, parenting, trauma), stated approaches (e.g., systemic, emotionally focused), experience with issues like divorce or blended families, and the therapist’s communication style. Pay attention to who they say they work with (age ranges, relationship types). Use initial contact to ask about methods and whether they have experience with situations like yours.
