Counseling After the 2023 Fort Lauderdale Flood
On April 12, 2023, Fort Lauderdale recorded 25.91 inches of rain in about a day, the most in the city's history. Neighborhoods flooded within hours, the airport closed, and many families spent months gutting rooms, replacing cars and fighting with insurers. For some people, a heavy-rain alert still brings a knot in the stomach. Refuge Springs Counseling provides mental health counseling in Fort Lauderdale, FL entirely by secure telehealth, so support is there even when the streets aren't passable.
Our licensed therapists help Fort Lauderdale clients with anxiety and weather-triggered worry, trauma, depression, and ADHD in children, teens and adults. After a disaster, kids often show stress through sleep problems, clinginess or school struggles, and counseling gives both them and their parents tools to feel safe at home again.
Counseling is rooted in Biblical principles and paired with evidence-based methods like CBT and trauma-informed care. Couples strained by repairs and money decisions can meet for Christian marriage counseling. Not in Broward? See our telehealth counseling across Florida. Book online or call 850-789-8025.

Online Counseling in Fort Lauderdale, FL: FAQs
Answers for Fort Lauderdale residents about flood-related anxiety, kids and stress, cost and telehealth.
Is it normal to feel anxious every time heavy rain is in the forecast?
Yes. After a flood like April 2023, your nervous system learns to treat rain as a threat. That alarm response is common and treatable. Counseling helps you calm it, plan sensibly and stop watching the radar all night.
My child has been anxious since the flood. Can you help?
Yes. Children and teens often show stress as trouble sleeping, stomachaches, clinginess or slipping grades. We work with kids and parents together by video so the whole family learns how to settle fears and rebuild routines.
Do you have an office in Fort Lauderdale?
No. Our practice is based in Pensacola, and every Fort Lauderdale client meets with us by secure video. Sessions don't depend on roads, parking or a building staying dry.
What does counseling cost?
Individual sessions are $110 self-pay and couples or family sessions are $120. For individual therapy we accept United Healthcare, Florida Blue (BCBS), Cigna, Aetna, Optum, Oxford and Oscar.
Can counseling help with the stress of rebuilding and insurance claims?
Yes. Long repair timelines, claim disputes and living in a half-finished house wear people down. Counseling won't settle a claim, but it helps you manage the frustration, protect your relationships and keep daily life steady while it drags on.
What if I'm in crisis?
If you are in immediate danger or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 or go to the nearest emergency room. Telehealth counseling is for ongoing support, and once you are safe we can help you build longer-term care.
