About parenting therapy for people in Port St. Lucie
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 Port St. Lucie 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.

Common questions
Can an online therapist help with behavior problems in young children?
Yes, many online therapists who work with parenting provide guidance on behavior management, routines, and developmental expectations. They can coach parents on strategies to reduce challenging behaviors and support positive habits. Look for therapists who list experience with early childhood, behavior interventions, or parent coaching to match your needs.
How do I compare therapists’ approaches to co-parenting and shared custody issues?
Compare profiles for mention of co-parenting, communication skills, conflict resolution, and experience with blended families. Note whether a therapist uses structured methods like mediation or parenting coordination, or focuses on improving communication and boundaries. Choose someone whose approach fits the level of conflict and the goals you have for co-parenting.
What should I look for if I’m a new parent worried about my own mental health?
Search for therapists who combine parenting support with perinatal or parental mental health experience. Look for mention of postpartum mood concerns, anxiety, sleep-related stress, and caregiver self-care. A therapist who addresses both child-focused strategies and parent well-being can help you manage parenting demands while supporting your mental health.
