More about Steven
- 35 years' experience
- Male
- LCPC
I have worked as a therapist for over 35 years in community mental health, in substance abuse prevention programs, in a Christian counseling center, and counseled foster children, as well as worked in a women's prison. I volunteered as a Stress Debriefer for emergency personal, including police, fire, EMT's, and Emergency room nurses. I believe in the holistic nature of wellness, and encourage physical, mental and spiritual health to maximize mental health. I also believe strongly that untreated stress/PTSD can create an array of mental and physical problems, including depression and anxiety, issues in relationships, poor self-esteem, and unresolved grief. Forming an atmosphere of acceptance and being non-judgmental are important to me in creating a relationship of trust and openness. I use a cognitive thinking approach with emphasis on managing emotional distress leading to healthy behaviors and activities. I also encourage people to learn and maintain calming and coping activities. Most people find me easy to talk to and I think you will too.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Great wisdom and so helpful!
I joined Betterhelp because I desperately needed someone to talk, listen, empathize, and give me some easy-to-integrate tips on how to manage my day-to-day stress and challenges. Steven has been a great fit for me from the jump. I feel seen and understood. His very presence is calming, and I feel more able to take on the challenges of the day after speaking with him!
Steven is very kind and I appreciate his faith based approach as I am also a Christian.
Steven Floyd is very compassionate and thoughtful. I appreciate everything. Please keep up the good work. Your words of encouragement was helpful. Thank you so much for everything .
I have found Steven to be very patient and insightful. He's helped to re-frame situations and allow me to see things in a different light.
Stephen is direct but not intimidating. I’ve had therapists where I’m able to control the situation and I didn’t find sessions helpful in the past with them. Stephen wouldn’t fall into that category. He’s very professional and has helped me navigate some sticky situations and gave excellent perspective. Highly recommended!
Super nice guy! Good listener
kind, compassionate, informed
Steve is a good listener and has experience in his field.
He is an overall wonderful person. But I need to do these in person inorder improve myself.
Steven has been amazing at helping me with my needs and understanding what I need to work on. He is great at hearing my issues and helping me find resolution. I couldn't not be happier with him.
Just love to talk to him , he's very insightful and helpful with different ideas for me that I would think of on my own
Steven is very easy to work with and listened to what my main concerns for coming to counseling were and worked with me on them.
Very easy to talk to. Provides good materials and worksheets to help understand and deal with problems.
Steve was wonderful to work with, he was very easy to talk to from the start and made me feel comfortable. He helped me tremendously with everything I was concerned about. I learned so much from him and would 100% recommend him to anyone.
Steven was a fantastic counselor.
I have avoided counseling for most of my life because of the stigma around it and my desire to fix my own problems. I was apprehensive and drug my feet for a while but mr floyd has such an easy going manner and is so personable I have started to open up to him. He is a consummate professional and I'm grateful for the opportunity to work with him
Steven is a great therapist I would recommend him to friends and family.
Steven made me feel comfortable right away. I felt like he really cared to listen and he always addressed all of my concerns. He truly is the only reason I'm still here walking amongst the living. He made life stress feel a lot less isolating and all consuming.
Really enjoy my counselor
