Thank You for Supporting Us
We are grateful to our clients, therapists, staff, referral partners, and community members who continue to support Challenges Conquered Counseling. The short version: Challenges Conquered Counseling is a Fort Lauderdale counseling practice with recognition from BusinessRate (2026 Top 3, Mental Health Service, based on Google Reviews), three straight Best of Florida nominations (2024 to 2026), and a 2024 YoPro 20 Under 40 honor for our founder. Awards are not a reason to choose a therapist, so below is what you can actually expect when you reach out.
What the recognition does and does not tell you
The BusinessRate placement was based on Google Reviews, which means it reflects what past clients chose to write about their experience. It says nothing about how therapy will go for you, because every person starts from a different place. What we can promise is a straightforward process: a real conversation in your first session, a therapist matched to what you are dealing with, and clear information about cost and scheduling before you commit. You can read each clinician's focus areas on our team page, and the how it works page explains self-pay, insurance and telehealth.
Where most people start
People usually reach out about a handful of concerns. Some want help with constant worry or racing thoughts, which is the focus of our anxiety therapy in Fort Lauderdale. Others are carrying low mood, loss or exhaustion, covered on the depression therapy page. Partners who feel stuck in the same argument can read about couples therapy, and our main Fort Lauderdale therapy page gives the full picture of the practice, its office on Cypress Creek Road and its telehealth options.
