How to Choose the Right Therapist for You
Think of finding a therapist like choosing the right guide for a personal journey—someone who gets your pace, understands your struggles, and helps you grow. Here’s how to find your best fit:
1. Identify Your Needs
Are you looking for help with anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or something else? Knowing what you want to work on helps narrow your options.
2. Understand Credentials
Our team includes licensed professionals (LMFT, LCSW, Ph.D., etc.) and registered interns—pre-licensed therapists who are fully trained and supervised as they complete licensure hours.
3. Explore Therapy Styles
We offer a range of evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, EMDR, hypnotherapy, and mindfulness-based approaches. Each therapist brings a unique approach—explore what resonates with you.
4. Consider Comfort and Compatibility
Your comfort with your therapist is key. We encourage you to book a free consultation to get a feel for their style and see if it’s a good fit.
5. Think About Practical Details
Availability, session length, fees, and location (Fort Lauderdale, Naples, or online) can all impact your choice. We offer flexible scheduling and HIPAA-compliant online therapy for clients in Florida and Arizona.
6. Cultural & Personal Fit
We honor your identity and background. If you have preferences around cultural understanding, gender, or lived experience, let us know so we can connect you with the right therapist.
