Three Simple Ways In
How we can work together in Pembroke Pines
Virtual Sessions
Close a door in Pembroke Pines, open your laptop, and we start. No drive, no waiting room, nobody sees you arrive.
Book a virtual sessionIn Person
Some things land better in the same room. My Boca Raton office is quiet, private, and yours for the hour.
Book in personTalk by Phone
Not sure yet? Ring me and ask. It costs nothing, you get me rather than a receptionist, and there is no pitch.
Call (754) 225-9819Therapy works best when it is boring in the good way: same time, same person, week after week. That is what I offer Pembroke Pines. Expect me to be direct and warm at once. I will tell you what I notice, and you can tell me when I have it wrong.
You can sit in your own home in Pembroke Pines, close the door, and we begin. No traffic, no waiting room. Speaking about pain in a borrowed language costs you accuracy. With me, you can use your own.
I also write psychological evaluations for immigration cases: asylum, extreme hardship (I-601, I-601A), VAWA, U-Visa, T-Visa, and cancellation of removal. I take clients from every corner of Broward County, the heart of South Florida and the Miami–Fort Lauderdale–West Palm Beach area included, whether you drive down to Boca Raton or never leave Pembroke Pines. Call or text me. I answer my own phone, and the first conversation costs nothing.
