Online Therapy chose the best 15 Tallahassee therapists using eight key factors that include clinical specializations, cost, credentials, and other key features. Using this set of criteria, you can be sure to find a mental health professional that’s a good match. |
Choosing the Best Tallahassee TherapistsCredentialsAll Tallahassee therapists must have approved credentials to offer services and checking these is one of the most reliable ways for a prospective client to learn more about their therapist. In Florida, therapists must hold a master’s degree from a regionally accredited mental health counseling program, complete two years of post-master’s supervised experience, pass the National Clinical Mental Health Counseling Examination, and complete several shorter courses. AccessibilityA therapist’s accessibility is crucial, as it determines how easily you’re able to fit therapy into your daily schedule. Factors such as flexible office hours and remote sessions can be a big help, as is having a wide range of specializations to accommodate different kinds of clients. CostIt’s important to have a clear understanding of a therapist’s hourly rate before working with them, as it can have a major impact on your budget. Some therapists charge per session, while others have monthly subscription fees. For clients with financial limitations, sliding scale plans and insurance coverage can help. |

Tallahassee therapists must fulfill a number of state and federal requirements before they can practice. In addition to holding a master’s degree from an accredited program, they need to complete 100 hours of supervision within 100 weeks, 1,500 hours of face-to-face therapy with clients, and one additional hour of supervision each week. Once this is completed, they must pass the National Clinical Mental Health Counseling Examination and courses on domestic violence and AIDS.
On average, Tallahassee therapists charge slightly over $100 per 50-minute session. However, this rate can vary, ranging from $70 to $150 per session. While many therapists offer sliding scale fees and accept many insurance plans, it’s always safest to check beforehand to make sure you can afford their services.
