Therapists in Cape Coral, FL
Cape Coral, FL, sits on a peninsula in southwestern Florida. It offers direct access to the Caloosahatchee River, various kayak routes, beaches, piers, and more than 400 miles of canals. Thanks to its tropical climate and abundant water, you can see things in Cape Coral that you can’t see in many other areas of the country, like mangroves and manatees. If you’re having difficulty enjoying the water and feel like you might get swept away, talking to a therapist in Cape Coral, FL, can help.
Finding the right therapist can be challenging. In-person counseling sessions are likely available from many therapy practices in and around Cape Coral, but finding one with an available appointment that fits your schedule can be challenging. Online therapy through a platform like BetterHelp lets you attend therapy sessions from the comfort of your home, so you don’t have to spend your valuable time driving to Fort Myers, Bonita Springs, or Lehigh Acres to find an appointment.
All BetterHelp therapists are appropriately trained in counseling psychology and skilled at using an eclectic approach to help you manage the current challenges in your life. Whether you need help with issues that affect women, difficult life experiences, family conflict, or mental health conditions, a therapist can develop a plan to help. Contact a Cape Coral-based therapist to make a positive change in your life.

Thank you for taking the time to view my profile! The field of psychology and behavior has been my academic and career path for over 10 years. My work is my passion and I enjoy watching others grown and flourish on their paths. I completed my Bachelors of Science in Psychology with concentrations in clinical rehabilitation and psychology of addictions in 2006 through Purdue University. While pursuing this degree, I aided in a longitudinal research study focused on intelligence and information processing through the Purdue Institute for Behavioral Sciences. While earning my Master’s, I volunteered for Riley’s Children Hospital as a behavior therapist with autistic children. During the same time, I also completed two practicums and internships (university setting and corrections), focusing my skills aiding adults with intense personal struggles and family dysfunction. While working with adults, I found my passion in those struggling daily with emotional concerns and addictions. My Master of Arts in clinical psychology was completed in 2008 at University of Indianapolis with a concentration in mental health counseling. Since then, I have worked in outpatient as well as inpatient settings, while also teaching psychology part-time as adjunct faculty for a local college. Thank you again for taking the time to learn some history about me and I look forward to sharing more of what I have learned through experience with you on your journey.

I am Mark Rogers, a licensed mental health counselor-supervisor (LMHC-S) in Florida. I have practiced person-centered mental health counseling for over 15 years with twenty years of experience in career and daily functioning coaching. My clients have ranged from primary school, adolescents, adults, members of the LGBTQ community, and incarcerated individuals. I have been EMDRIA trained to provide EMDR therapy (eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing) and I use techniques of this within the framework of cognitive behavioral therapy. Trained attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder-certified clinical service provider (ADHD-CCSP), trauma (PTSD and CPTSD). I have the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis Levels 1 and 2 training for clinical hypnotherapy. My modalities include cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy (CBT and DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), EMDR with a goal of solution-focused therapy, and hypnotherapy to address trauma/anxiety/and attachment issues. Our therapeutic relationship is the most important part of counseling. During our sessions, my goal is to help you achieve your goal. I will be more focused on helping you achieve the goals you set than giving a diagnosis/label. I know that the hardest part of getting help is the process of asking (or seeking) help for an issue. Most of us do not want others to see us at less than our best. I feel that my role as a counselor is to genuinely care for my clients. A counselor should avoid judging or putting their value system in the way of progress. The only goal that I personally have for my clients is to achieve the best quality of life that they can create for themselves. I am a facilitator towards progress, but the engine that drives progress is within you. I look forward to meeting you.

8 years offering treatment
I have been working in the mental health field for over 8 years working with clients through a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, intimacy, mood disorders, and impulsiveness. I use a positive and nonjudgmental approach in my counseling and I strongly believe in the importance of accepting who we truly are to find a sense of peace. Where one person sees a weakness, I see a strength that has not been polished yet. I would love to be the person who laughs and cries with you as we explore your life and other areas you want to discuss. My therapeutic approaches are very eclectic and will largely depend on the reasons you wish to speak with a therapist as well as how it matches with your personality. My main approaches in counseling include DBT, CBT, Solution-Focused Counseling, Gestalt, and Person-Centered. Why I might be the right therapist for you: I meet you where you are at emotionally, but I will provide gentle nudges to help you continue to flourish in life. I am not on BetterHelp to make money. I am currently one of two mental health educators in the state of Florida (teaching therapists how to do therapy in prison); I am on BetterHelp because I love therapy and I am unable to do therapy in my current position. I will not have a full caseload as some other therapists will have on here, giving me more time to put my energy into the select few clients I work with. I have a broad history of working in different populations such as teens (most of my experience has been working with juvenile males, but I have also worked with females regarding depression and anxiety), kiddos, adults in the community and incarcerated, sexual disorders, and adults in inpatient treatment. If you think it, I've probably already heard it or seen it, meaning I won't have any judgment toward you and your thoughts/behaviors. My goal is to work myself out of a job, meaning I want you to feel better. If you're willing to put the work in, so am I.
