# Online therapy for Port St. Lucie

The Treasure Coast has grown faster than its specialist services have, and trauma-focused clinicians are thin on the ground here.

Telehealth, not an office

That gap is the ordinary reason people wait. Not reluctance, just a list of practices that are full and a drive south or inland that nobody has time for.

Video takes the geography out of it. You are choosing from clinicians licensed in Florida rather than clinicians within forty minutes of you.

A large share of St. Lucie County moved here from somewhere else. Starting over somewhere warm does not settle everything that came with you, and there is nothing unusual about noticing that a year or two in.

St. Lucie and Martin counties by video: Port St. Lucie, Fort Pierce, Stuart, Jensen Beach, Tradition. There is no physical office in Port St. Lucie. Every session runs by secure video.

Sessions are online. This shows the area served, not an office location.

Sessions

90 minutes, by secure video

Fee

$225 per session · private-pay only

Insurance
