We are Very Good

Our Counseling Office

Welcome to Our Very Good Counseling Office

While we provide online counseling and therapy throughout Florida, Fort Myers is truly our home base. Very Good Counseling was founded in Fort Myers, Florida, and the majority of our therapists also live in the area. As a result, we provide a counseling space in our Fort Myers office for in-person sessions.

As the popularity of online therapy grew, we debated the benefits and drawbacks of maintaining an in-person office. And the decision was simple for us. We recognize the importance of face-to-face communication. As a result, we’ve kept a physical office and done everything we could to make your visit as pleasant as possible.

…Because We Believe You Matter.

How to get to our office in Fort Myers, FL

Our counseling office is located at 1342 Colonial Blvd, directly beside the Midpoint Bridge connecting Cape Coral to Fort Myers. We are in the Key West Professional Center near the Broadway Palm Theater. It’s just past the Alliance of the Arts and directly across the street from the YMCA.

We are in a GREY building labeled H. Please feel free to park in any of the Visitor parking spaces right outside the building (covered parking is for the business owners).

When you come into the building, go to the second level. Our office is Suite H64. Please come on in, have a seat, and your therapist will come out to greet you at your assigned time. We look forward to seeing you!

Please note that our in-person counseling office is only about 5 minutes from Bishop Verot High School, Fort Myers Country Club, Edison Mall, and across the street from Fort Myers YMCA. If you’re coming from Cape Coral, it’s a short drive if you take Veterans Parkway.

If you’re coming from South Cape Coral, taking Cape Coral Bridge and turning left on McGregor Blvd only takes about 10 minutes. For our North Fort Myers clients, taking 41 Bridge near Downtown Fort Myers will only add about five minutes to your trip.

A Safe & Comfortable Counseling Office

We believe that the entire process of counseling plays a part in your healing including the physical space you are in when speaking to your therapist. Therefore, our hope is that moment you walk into your office you will feel at peace.

We are passionate about creating a peaceful environment that feels distinctly different than the “real world.”

You’ll notice small touches meant to promote healing, peacefulness and to encourage self care. If you think of anything that would make you even more comfortable in our office, please let us know.

We are always looking for ways to make our space even more inviting and peaceful.

Can’t make it to our Fort Myers, FL office?

While we take great pride in our physical space and enjoy seeing clients in the office, we recognize that many people these days prefer to meet with a therapist online. That is why our therapists have spent time and effort learning how to provide the best online counseling services possible.

In fact, all of our counseling services, including EMDR Therapy, are now available online. We use a secure video (HIPPA-compliant) platform and make every effort to give you as comfortable an experience as possible, even when you’re attending online therapy.

If you are going to meet with a therapist online, we recommend that you create a comfortable environment for yourself. It is critical that you meet with your therapist in a location that provides complete privacy. You might also consider what else might make you feel more at ease.

Sitting at your desk and staring at a huge pile of work that needs to be done, for example, may not make you feel as relaxed as choosing a comfortable spot in your living room.

We can meet with you for therapy online if you live anywhere in the state of Florida.

  Robert is an expert at his craft and truly cares… I have been working with him for about a year now and my life has transformed. Things I never thought I’d be able to do because of trauma have simply gone away in the most healthy way. I cannot thank him enough and he is an expert on dealing with traumatic events and talks to you as a human with a sense of humor.

  I continue to refer clients to the Engle’s due to their high level of expertise in treating trauma. They are proficient, compassionate counselors who go above and beyond. It is wonderful being able to refer clients for EMDR services.

  Looking for counselor who I liked took forever it seemed but once I met the counselors here I knew I was in the right place. They are very caring but easy to get along with. I was looking for anxiety therapy and depression therapy and they help me overcome these issues. I have been going for about 6 months now and I have couldn’t imagine what my life would be if I didn’t get the help I needed.

Once we met a few times in the office I decided to do therapy online. It was quick and painless to set up and since we met in person it’s like we never missed a beat.

I would recommend this place for anyone who is looking for quality counseling by real people. They have changed my life for the better. No hesitation to recommend them, the best therapy in Fort, Myers.

  My daughter has been seeing Elena for two years after suffering from emotional and physical trauma. My daughter has made great strides in her self-worth, critical thinking, confidence and emotional processing throughout this time. Elena and her EMDR treatments are a complete game-changer and I will forever be grateful to her for helping get my daughter on a path for true healing. Elena is an absolute professional! We’ve had parental sessions with me and also accommodated mother/daughter sessions with us that have given us the gift of in-depth understanding for positive changes in our relationship. If you’re on the fence of treatment or are looking for someone with a better connection, your future will thank you for seeking Elena’s services today. I’ll be forever grateful to her for her help.
