Orlando is a city defined by energy — but that same pace can take a toll. Whether you're navigating the demands of the tourism and hospitality industry, managing the academic pressures of UCF or Valencia College, adjusting to a relocation, or simply feeling the weight of daily life in a rapidly growing metro, having a therapist who understands the Central Florida experience matters.
Caring Therapists is not a solo practice or an online-only platform. We are a clinician-owned group practice with 12 locations across Florida and more than 120 providers. That means our Orlando clients benefit from the personal attention of a local team backed by the clinical depth, administrative infrastructure, and continuity of a well-established organization. If your therapist is unavailable, you're never left without support — and if your needs change over time, we can connect you with a specialist within our practice rather than referring you out and starting over.
Our Orlando office is located at 130 Pasadena Pl, Orlando, FL 32803, in the Colonialtown neighborhood. We are conveniently accessible from I-4, the 408 (East-West Expressway), and surrounding communities including Winter Park, Baldwin Park, Thornton Park, College Park, and the MetroWest area. We see clients Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 8 PM and Saturdays from 9 AM to 4 PM, with evening appointments available to accommodate work and school schedules.
