John Brennan, LMFT

John Brennan is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida. He brings direct, solution-focused work to common struggles parents and individuals face. He speaks in plain terms and aims for practical progress early in therapy.

He uses a straightforward, interactive style. Sessions are nonjudgmental and respect each person’s background and goals. He personalizes conversations and plans so the work fits what a client actually needs rather than following a rigid script.

John has four years of clinical experience noted in this profile and additional long-term experience assessing and diagnosing children who were abused or neglected and many who were in foster care. That background informs how he approaches concerns like parenting, trauma, adoption and foster care issues, and fatherhood topics.

Typical concerns he addresses include depression, anxiety, anger, ADHD, stress, relationship and family problems, and jealousy. He often uses solution-focused methods to help people see change quickly and maintain forward momentum.

Because he favors a practical approach, sessions tend to emphasize clear goals and small, achievable steps. He encourages motivated clients who want to make changes and offers guidance and encouragement along the way.

How his approaches shape online therapy

John uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what they truly want and to boost readiness for change; this approach is useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps. Solution-Focused Therapy is a skills-oriented method he often uses to set small, practical goals and notice progress quickly. Internal Family Systems looks at different parts of a person’s inner life and helps reduce conflict between those parts to improve emotional balance and relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will work with each client to see which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences and adjust as the work progresses. Clients and the therapist decide together what feels most helpful in sessions.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around busy schedules, avoid travel time, and keep conversations focused on immediate problems. It also lets people choose a quieter time for check-ins or shorter meetings when that fits their day. Talk with him during the intake process about practical arrangements and how to make therapy fit your routine.
