About marriage and family therapist therapy for people in Irving

Everyone listed on this page holds a license to practice in Texas and works online. That matters more than it sounds: a license is issued by the state, not by a city, so a therapist is available to anyone in Texas regardless of how far away they are. Someone in Irving can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.

144 therapists match this page, all of whom name marriage and family therapist among the areas they work with. Fifteen are shown above. The list changes between pages, so it is worth looking at more than one if none of these feels like a fit.

What to compare

  • Credential. LPC, LCSW and LMFT are different training routes into licensed therapy work. None outranks the others; they shape emphasis rather than quality.
  • Years in practice. Shown for every therapist here. More experience is not automatically better, but it is a fair proxy for how much of a given problem someone has seen.
  • What else they work with. A therapist whose other focus areas overlap with your situation is usually a better starting point than one whose listed areas stop at the single thing you searched for.
  • Approach. CBT, psychodynamic, solution-focused and the rest describe how sessions tend to run. If you have tried therapy before and it did not suit you, changing approach is often more useful than changing therapist.
  • Language. Shown where a therapist offers sessions in more than English.

How online sessions work

Sessions run by video or by messaging, arranged through our partner platform rather than booked directly with the therapist. There is no travel and no waiting room, which for most people is the difference between starting and not starting. Pricing is set by the platform and shown before you commit.

Therapy in Irving

Irving has a population of about 256,684. Local in-person availability varies and waiting lists are common, which is part of why state-wide online practice has grown. Nothing on this page depends on a therapist being near you.

Common questions

What does LMFT mean and when should I choose an LMFT over other provider types?

LMFT stands for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Choose an LMFT when your primary concerns involve couple dynamics, family relationships, parenting, or systemic issues that affect more than one person. LMFT training focuses on relational patterns and interventions that include partners and family members, which can differ from individual-focused therapy approaches.

Can an LMFT licensed in Texas provide therapy to someone living in Irving?

Yes. A Texas license authorizes practice across the state, so an LMFT licensed in Texas can work with clients who live in Irving. You do not need a therapist to be physically in Irving. Confirm directly with the therapist about their current availability for clients in Irving before starting sessions.

What should I compare when choosing an LMFT for couples or family work?

Compare each LMFT’s experience with issues you care about, such as infidelity, co-parenting, blended families, or communication skills. Look at their therapeutic approaches (for example, Emotionally Focused Therapy or Structural Family Therapy), willingness to include multiple family members, and comfort handling conflict or trauma. Also ask about session format and any specific policies before committing.
