Individual Therapy
Our individual therapy sessions address depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and relationship challenges through evidence-based approaches like CBT and DBT. Psychologists collaborate with clients to create personalized treatment plans that promote emotional growth and coping strategies. With both in-office and telehealth options available, we serve adults, adolescents, and children across Florida and 40+ states.
Couples Counseling
Specialized couples therapy includes Gottman Method certification and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for relationship challenges. Initial 90-minute evaluations assess relationship dynamics, followed by individual and joint sessions to improve communication and conflict resolution. Our Miami Beach practice offers the only Gottman-certified therapist in Miami and Broward counties.
DBT Programs
As Florida's first Linehan Board Certified DBT program, we treat severe anxiety, depression, and emotional dysregulation through adolescent and adult DBT groups. Our comprehensive approach includes skills training in mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotional regulation. All clinicians receive specialized training from the Linehan Institute's Behavioral Tech.
Family Therapy
Family therapy sessions focus on improving relationships during life transitions like divorce, remarriage, or family crises. We combine individual and group approaches to address behavioral issues in children and adolescents while promoting healthy family dynamics. Parenting skills training supports families navigating academic and emotional challenges.
Psychological Assessments
We conduct comprehensive assessments for learning disabilities, ADHD, and cognitive challenges through intelligence testing and behavioral evaluations. Our diagnostic services guide treatment planning for children and adults, with specialized reports for academic accommodations and vocational planning. Assessments integrate clinical insights with practical recommendations for ongoing care.
