Therapists in Fort Myers, FL
Therapy for women and couples serving Fort Myers — in person from the Naples office about 45 to 50 minutes up the road, or by secure video anywhere in Florida. Kellie Hatch, MA, RMHCI, offers a free 15-minute Discovery Call before you commit to anything.
The short answer
Naples Therapists serves Fort Myers two ways: in-person sessions at 1048 Goodlette-Frank Rd N, Naples, FL 34102 — roughly 40 miles and 45 to 50 minutes from Fort Myers — and HIPAA-compliant video sessions available to anyone physically located in Florida.
Standard sessions are $125. The practice is self-pay and does not bill insurance directly, though a superbill is available on request for out-of-network reimbursement. New clients start with a free 15-minute Discovery Call. Call (239) 526-8526 or book online.
Getting to therapy from Fort Myers
Fort Myers is about 40 miles north of the Naples office, roughly 45 to 50 minutes down I-75. That is a real commitment for a weekly appointment, which is why most Fort Myers clients work primarily by video and reserve in-person visits for longer pieces of work — an RTT intensive, a couples session, or a Walk & Talk Beach Therapy session on the Naples shoreline.
The draw is specialisation rather than proximity. Rapid Transformational Therapy, private couples retreats and beach-based sessions are not widely offered in Lee County, and clients looking specifically for depth work on attachment and relationship patterns often find the nearest genuine fit is south of the county line.
If a drive on a busy week is the thing that would make you cancel, telehealth removes that variable entirely. Sessions run over secure video and are open to anyone physically located in Florida, so many Fort Myers clients mix the two — coming into the Naples office when it suits them and taking sessions from home the rest of the time.
Who Kellie works with
The practice is built around two groups. The first is high-functioning professional women whose lives look composed from the outside while something underneath keeps repeating — the same kind of partner, the same erosion of self-trust, the same quiet resentment. The second is couples: rebuilding after betrayal, breaking out of a communication loop, or deciding whether to keep going at all.
Common presenting concerns include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, attachment patterns, trauma and PTSD, infidelity recovery, divorce and separation, parenting stress, grief, boundaries, burnout, and career or identity transitions.
Approaches available to Fort Myers clients
Every approach below is available to Fort Myers residents, in person or by video except where the format requires being physically present.
Rapid Transformational Therapy
Hypnotherapy, NLP, CBT and psychotherapy combined to find and reframe the root of a pattern — often in one to three sessions.
Solution Focused Therapy
Forward-looking and goal-oriented. Builds on what already works in your life instead of re-excavating everything that didn't.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Depth work on the unconscious patterns, early experiences and inner conflicts still shaping how you show up today.
Anxiety Therapy
Practical tools to quiet worry cycles, interrupt rumination and get your nervous system back out of high alert.
Walk & Talk Beach Therapy
Sessions held walking the Naples shoreline — side by side rather than across a room, which many clients find easier.
Couples retreats
Private intensives for one couple at a time: a half day on Keewaydin Island, or three guided days through Soul & Sand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to drive to Naples for therapy if I live in Fort Myers?
No. Secure video sessions are available to anyone physically located in Florida, so you can be seen entirely from home. In-person sessions are offered at 1048 Goodlette-Frank Rd N, Naples, FL 34102, about 45 to 50 minutes from Fort Myers, and many clients alternate between the two.
How much does a therapy session cost for Fort Myers clients?
$125 for a standard individual session, the same fee whether you attend in person or by video. Walk & Talk Beach Therapy is $140, RTT packages start at $750, the Keewaydin Island couples retreat is $950, and the Soul & Sand marriage retreat is $4,500 per couple. The first 15-minute Discovery Call is free.
Do you take insurance?
Naples Therapists is a self-pay practice and does not bill insurance directly. A superbill can be provided on request so clients with out-of-network mental health benefits can seek reimbursement from their insurer.
How soon can a Fort Myers client get an appointment?
The practice is currently accepting new clients. The fastest route is to book the free 15-minute Discovery Call online or call (239) 526-8526. Office hours are Monday to Friday 8:00 AM–6:30 PM and Saturday 7:30 AM–12:30 PM Eastern.
Is the drive from Fort Myers worth it, or should I just do video?
For standard weekly sessions, video is usually the practical choice and is clinically equivalent for most presenting concerns. In-person makes more sense for the formats that depend on being there — RTT intensives, couples sessions, the Keewaydin Island retreat, and Walk & Talk Beach Therapy. The Discovery Call is a good place to work out which mix fits.
