Counseling for Life Transitions and Caregivers in Sarasota
Sarasota County has the highest median age of any U.S. county with at least 250,000 residents, and more than a third of the people living here are 65 or older. That shapes what families bring to counseling: adjusting to retirement, caring for a parent or spouse, grieving a loss, and adult children trying to help from a distance. Refuge Springs Counseling provides mental health counseling in Sarasota, FL by secure telehealth, so support comes to you instead of adding another appointment to drive to.
Our licensed therapists help Sarasota clients with depression and grief, anxiety, caregiver burnout and big life transitions. Retirement can bring unexpected loneliness or loss of purpose, and caring for someone you love can leave you exhausted, and then guilty for feeling exhausted. Counseling gives you room to say so.
Our care is rooted in Biblical principles and paired with evidence-based methods like CBT. Couples navigating retirement, health changes or blended families can meet for Christian marriage counseling, and faith can be as central as you want through Christian counseling.

Online Counseling in Sarasota, FL: FAQs
What Sarasota residents and their families ask about counseling for caregiving, grief, retirement and telehealth.
Is online counseling hard to use if I'm not comfortable with technology?
It's simpler than most people expect. You click a link and the session opens on a phone, tablet or computer with a camera. A family member can help with the first setup and then step out so you have privacy.
Can counseling help with caregiver stress?
Yes. Caring for a spouse or parent is demanding and often lonely. Counseling helps you handle exhaustion, guilt and resentment, set limits you can live with, and protect your own health while you care for someone else.
I'm newly retired and feel lost. Can counseling help?
Yes. Retirement removes structure, identity and daily contact with people, and many retirees are surprised by how low they feel. Counseling helps you work through that transition and build a routine and sense of purpose that fit this stage of life.
Can counseling help after losing a spouse?
Yes. Grief after a long marriage can affect sleep, appetite, motivation and faith. Counseling gives you a steady place to grieve, honor the relationship and find your footing again at your own pace.
What does counseling cost?
Individual sessions are $110 self-pay and couples sessions are $120. For individual therapy we accept United Healthcare, Florida Blue (BCBS), Cigna, Aetna, Optum, Oxford and Oscar. Ask us before booking if you're unsure about your plan.
Do you have an office in Sarasota?
No. Our practice is based in Pensacola, and all sessions are by secure video. That means no driving, parking or waiting rooms, which matters if mobility or driving at night is a challenge.
