About addiction therapy for people in Pembroke Pines
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 Pembroke Pines can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.
1,149 therapists match this page, all of whom name addiction 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 Pembroke Pines
Pembroke Pines has a population of about 171,178. 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 types of addiction do these therapists commonly treat?
Therapists listed here often work with substance use disorders, alcohol dependency, prescription drug misuse, and behavioral addictions like gambling or internet use. Many also treat co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. Check each profile for specific areas of focus and therapeutic modalities used to address those problems.
How can I tell which therapist is best for someone dealing with relapse?
Look for therapists who mention relapse prevention, harm reduction, and skills-based interventions in their profiles. Experience with triggers, cravings, and creating concrete coping plans is helpful. Also consider whether a therapist lists work with life transitions, family involvement, or dual diagnosis, since relapse risk often ties to broader personal and social factors.
Can I choose a therapist who uses medication management along with therapy?
This directory lists therapists who provide psychotherapy; some may coordinate care with prescribers but do not provide medication unless specifically stated. If you want combined medication and therapy, look for profiles that mention collaboration with physicians, addiction medicine specialists, or psychiatrist referrals so your care team can include both medication and therapeutic support.
