About parenting therapy for people in Plantation
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 Plantation can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.
1,275 therapists match this page, all of whom name parenting 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 Plantation
Plantation has a population of about 91,750. 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
Can a therapist who lists parenting as a specialty help with toddler behavior problems?
Yes. Many therapists who work with parenting help with child behavior across age ranges, including toddlers. Look for profiles that mention early childhood, positive behavior strategies, or parent coaching. Check each therapist’s described approaches to see if they match the techniques you want, such as behavioral strategies, routine building, or attachment-focused work.
How do I choose between therapists who offer parent coaching versus family therapy?
Consider whether you want focused skill-building for parents or broader work with multiple family members. Parent coaching typically concentrates on strategies you can use day-to-day. Family therapy involves joint sessions and systems-level changes. Read therapist profiles to see which methods they emphasize and what kinds of family constellations they commonly work with.
Do these therapists work with parents facing co-parenting or custody-related stress?
Many therapists in this category list experience supporting parents through co-parenting conflicts, separation, and custody-related stress. Look for profiles that mention co-parenting, divorce adjustment, communication skills, or mediation-informed approaches. Profiles will note if a therapist regularly helps parents manage conflict and develop parenting plans.
