Find a therapist in Florida — covered by insurance


Top therapists in Florida accepting new patients
I regularly work with individuals facing a variety of life's diverse challenges including anxiety/ panic, family-of-origin concerns, depression, maternal mental health, transition to parenthood, trauma, grief/ loss, sexual issues, and career related concerns. I also have a specialization in sex and relationship therapy. Please note, I do not provide couple or family therapy services on insurance as these forms of therapy are not recognized by insurances. If you'd like couple or family services, I provide out of network services and can also provide a sliding scale based on your income/ genuine financial need.
My clients are often seeking a combination of clarity, coping skills, and in general -- more ease and happiness in their daily life. I also have a unique specialization in "relationship therapy for one" where we unpack what might be keeping you stuck or unhappy when it comes to your overall relationship health/ satisfaction.
I have been a licensed therapist for over a decade and received my training at state of the art educational institutes including Syracuse University and other hospital and outpatient centers across NY and Manhattan. I have also sought out ongoing participation in professional clinical consultation groups with some of the most influential therapists and thought leaders of our time. These varied and diverse professional training experiences enable me to provide the best possible care to each client I serve. In addition, I also provide training and mentorship for new therapists looking to specialize in sex and relationship health.
I'm glad you're here.
Hi, I'm Sandra.
Life can feel overwhelming at times. You may be feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, or simply wondering how to move forward. Whether you're navigating a life transition, grief, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck, you don't have to go through it alone.
I believe healing begins when we feel truly heard. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, certified school counselor, and educator, I enjoy helping women, teens, and young adults find hope, healing, and practical tools for life's challenges.
Our first session is simply a conversation. I'll take time to listen, understand your story, and learn what matters most to you. We'll work together at a pace that feels right for you and create goals that fit your unique needs.
Clients often tell me they leave sessions feeling heard, hopeful, and with practical tools they can begin using right away. Some have even shared that therapy feels like talking with a trusted friend while also gaining meaningful insight and growth.
If faith is important to you, I'm happy to thoughtfully integrate Christian faith into our work together.

I have a wide-ranging education background in counseling, receiving my Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling. I am experienced in helping with many concerns including, but not limited to; self concepts, mood disorders (anxiety, depression, etc), coping skills, effective communication skills, gender specific issues, family systems, body image, relapse prevention, chemical dependency, and anger management.
You have been holding it together for everyone else, and the emotional weight that comes from carrying too much on your own has stopped being manageable. Maybe it is anxiety that will not turn off. Maybe your marriage has gone quiet. Maybe a season of your life ended and you are not sure who you are on the other side of it. I have been sitting with people through exactly this for 40 years. Much of my work is Christian counseling, so if you want your faith in the room, it belongs here. If that is not your path, you are just as welcome. I am licensed in Florida and Colorado and welcome in person patients in Florida!
My name is Amy Lee Ellowitz and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in working with individuals navigating major life transitions who struggle with feeling overwhelmed by loss, relationship changes, identity shifts, and other "lifequakes" that shake their foundation.
I help by blending evidence-based therapeutic methods with genuine understanding drawn from my own experiences with transformation, creating a safe space where you remain in the driver's seat while building resilience and rediscovering your authentic self. In our first few sessions, you can expect a compassionate, affirming environment where your story is honored, your pace is respected, and we begin processing your experiences while establishing the foundation for meaningful growth. My practice is unique because I bring personal understanding of life's major disruptions and view challenges as opportunities for transformation rather than defining moments, always honoring your unique identity and journey. I am passionate about this work because your story matters deeply to me, and I believe lifequakes can become the foundation for renewed purpose—you don't have to navigate these changes alone, and witnessing your resilience and growth is deeply meaningful.
My clients arrive feeling overwhelmed by major life disruptions. They're questioning who they are, feeling isolated, and struggling with anxiety or grief. They want to rediscover themselves, build resilience, and transform their pain into meaningful growth with compassionate support.
I love to utilize EMDR, psychoeducation along with other methods to help resolve the distress.
Hi there! I am dedicated to meeting each client exactly where they are, inviting them to "come matter here." I view the therapeutic relationship as a powerful partnership, where safety, support, and respect come together to inspire meaningful change. I believe in the power of laughter and often weave humor into my sessions to create a comfortable and inviting atmosphere.
I believe everyone can benefit from having someone to talk to. As a therapist I enjoy creating an environment that makes people feel comfortable sharing their challenges. Through motivational interviewing I help clients discover solutions to their problems and help improve overall functioning while living with day-to-day stress. My experience helping clients with a myriad of diagnoses has prepared me to serve a wide range of individuals with a focus on unconditional positive regard and a collaborative therapeutic environment.
