Quick Questions About Therapy in Florida
Is there an online therapist in Florida who takes insurance?
Yes. New Reflections Counseling sees clients by secure video anywhere in Florida and is in network with Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare (including UMR plans), Blue Cross Blue Shield, Tricare East, Curative, MultiPlan and Oscar. In-person sessions are at our Wellington office on Lake Worth Road, and EMDR is by video only. Plan participation varies by clinician; we’ll match you with someone in network. Call (561) 288-0377 or use our contact form, and we will check your benefits free, usually within a couple of hours.
Can we do couples therapy in Florida by video or in person?
Both. Every New Reflections Counseling couples therapist in Florida sees couples by secure video statewide, and Yasmyne (Mina) Salhia, MS, RMHCI, sees couples in person at our Wellington office, including IFS-informed couples work. Kathy Altidor, MS, LMHC, is trained in the Gottman Method and certified in Prepare/Enrich for premarital couples, and Jaime Doss, LMHC, who is trained in the Gottman Method (Level II), sees couples by video. Discernment counseling is available when one of you is unsure about staying, and we will check whether your plan covers couples sessions before you start.
Can I get therapy and medication management from the same practice in Florida?
Yes. Sima Alavi, DNP, a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner, provides medication management for New Reflections Counseling by secure video, and with your consent she can coordinate with your Florida therapist. Florida medication visits are in network with Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Tricare, Curative and MultiPlan. ADHD medication is non-stimulant only, and we prescribe only in Florida, New Jersey and Colorado.
Mental Health Therapy for Individuals, Couples, Teens & Families in Florida
Every client’s experience is unique, which is why our approach — whether you’re seeking counseling in Florida for anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, or life transitions — focuses on individualized care tailored to your specific needs and circumstances. We use evidence-based therapeutic methods to help clients build healthier coping strategies, strengthen relationships, manage stress, and navigate life transitions with greater clarity and confidence. Our goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where meaningful progress can happen at your pace. We also have dedicated pages on grief counseling in Florida, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy in Florida and therapy for borderline personality disorder in Florida.
New Reflections Counseling provides therapy and counseling to clients across Florida. We offer in-person sessions at our Wellington office in Palm Beach County and secure telehealth counseling for individuals, couples, teens, and families anywhere in the state — from Miami and Fort Lauderdale to Orlando, Tampa, and Jacksonville. Wherever you are in Florida, professional mental health support is within reach. Three of our Florida clinicians see clients in person in Wellington; the rest of the Florida team, including EMDR and medication management, works by secure video.
Online Couples Therapy in Florida
New Reflections Counseling, P.A. offers online couples therapy by secure video anywhere in Florida: every NRC therapist in Florida sees couples by video. Three also see couples in person at our Wellington office: Yasmyne (Mina) Salhia, MS, RMHCI; Kathy Altidor, MS, LMHC, who is Gottman-trained, Prepare/Enrich certified for premarital work and sees couples in English; and Jackeline Rodriguez, MSW, RCSWI, whose sessions can be in English or Spanish. By video, couples can also work with Jaime Doss, LMHC (Gottman Method, Level II trained), Nancy Van Wyk, LMFT, LPC, Jodi Katz, RCSWI, or any other Florida therapist on our team. All draw on skills from the Gottman Method; Mina and Nancy add IFS for couples; EFT (emotionally focused therapy) is offered by video; and discernment counseling is offered. Florida plans we’re in network with: Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare (including UMR plans), Blue Cross Blue Shield, Tricare East, Curative, MultiPlan and Oscar. Plan participation varies by clinician; we’ll match you with someone in network. If there has been violence, or one of you is afraid of the other, joint sessions are not where to begin. Call 911 in an emergency, or the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233.
Does insurance cover couples therapy in Florida?
It depends on your plan, and the deciding question is usually whether one of you is being treated. Plans pay for care of a diagnosed condition, so sessions about the relationship alone are often excluded, while couples sessions that are part of one partner’s treatment may be paid. Where that fits, we bill under one partner’s diagnosis. Our free benefits check asks your plan about couples sessions by name, and answers usually come back within a couple of hours. If coverage falls short, HSA and FSA cards work, and we provide superbills for out-of-network claims.
Can we do couples therapy online if one of us spends part of the year up north?
Yes, with one rule that comes from licensing, not from us: during each session, each of you has to be physically in a state where your therapist is licensed. If you’re both in Florida, it doesn’t matter that one of you is in Jupiter and the other in Tampa. If one of you heads to New York or New Jersey for the summer, tell us at intake. Some of our Florida clinicians hold licenses in more than one of our states, and we’ll say plainly whether your season works with a given therapist before you book.
