Online Mental Health Counseling in Florida: FAQs
Straight answers about starting therapy in Florida — what it costs, what the first session is like, and how telehealth works.
How do I know if I need mental health counseling?
If something in your life feels heavier than you can carry alone, that is reason enough to start counseling — you do not need a diagnosis to qualify. Many people reach out because sleep, focus, relationships, or mood have shifted and nothing they have tried is helping. A first conversation can tell you whether therapy is the right next step.
What happens in the first counseling session?
Your first session is about getting to know each other, gathering information about what brought you in, and setting goals for your work together. There is no pressure to share more than you are ready to share. Most people meet weekly or every other week, and the average course of therapy runs about eight sessions, though it can be longer depending on your goals.
How much does counseling cost and which insurance plans do you accept?
Self-pay counseling is $115 per individual session and $135 per family or couples session. We also accept United Healthcare, Florida Blue (BCBS), Cigna, Aetna, Optum, Oxford, and Oscar for individual therapy. Insurance is not accepted for couples or family sessions, so those are self-pay. If you are unsure what your plan covers, ask us before your first appointment.
Does online therapy in Florida work as well as meeting in person?
Online therapy in Florida follows the same structure and the same confidentiality standards as meeting in an office — the difference is the screen, not the care. You meet by secure video from wherever you feel comfortable and private, whether that is home, a parked car, or a quiet room on a lunch break. For many people, removing the drive makes it far easier to keep appointments.
Can I get virtual mental health counseling anywhere in Florida?
Yes — you can receive virtual mental health counseling anywhere in Florida, because every session is offered by secure video. Our office is in Pensacola, but you can meet with us from Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, or anywhere else in the state. You need a private space, a reliable internet connection, and a phone, tablet, or computer with a camera.
Is what I share in counseling confidential?
What you share in counseling is confidential. The one exception is when there is a threat of harm to yourself or someone else, which we are required to act on to keep people safe. Telehealth sessions are held on a secure platform, so that privacy carries over to video. If you are in immediate danger, call or text 988 or go to the nearest emergency room.
