About John
John Brennan is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in Florida. He uses a practical, solution-oriented style to help people make changes.
Background and approach
He speaks English and works with clients online by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. He focuses on common concerns like parenting stress, anger, ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship struggles.
He also helps with issues related to adoption and foster care, blended family challenges, cancer-related stress, and fatherhood concerns. His approach aims to identify small steps that lead to clearer day-to-day progress.
John has four years of clinical experience as an LMFT. He structures sessions to be interactive and direct, so clients can leave with practical ideas and homework when helpful.
He favors brief, goal-focused conversations that keep momentum from session to session. Motivational Interviewing is part of his toolbox when people need help finding drive and clarity to change habits.
He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set specific, achievable goals quickly. Internal Family Systems informs how he talks about different parts of a person’s inner experience and how they affect behavior.
Clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Costs vary by location and therapist availability and are charged through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How these approaches work in online therapy
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people find their own reasons to change. It focuses on listening, asking open questions, and building motivation for steps like adjusting routines or parenting strategies.Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on what a person wants to see different. Sessions aim to set small, practical goals and identify actions that can be tried between meetings to create quick momentum.
Internal Family Systems looks at the different parts inside a person - for example a worried part or an angry part - and learns how they relate to each other. This can help people understand patterns that affect behavior and relationships.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring. The plan can be adjusted over time as progress and needs become clearer.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are helpful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or messaging can be useful for quick check-ins, emotional support between sessions, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options let people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between meetings.
