Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Boynton Beach, FL covered by Cigna

I completed my undergraduate studies at Florida International University. I obtained a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling at Nova Southeastern University and completed both a master’s and doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Albizu University. I gained predoctoral internship training at University of Central Florida and a postdoctoral fellowship at Jackson Health System in affiliation with the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

I'm Deborah Mondlak, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker based in Hollywood, Florida, specializing in trauma, grief, and life transitions.

My work is grounded in the belief that healing doesn't have to take years. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART), an evidence-based approach that helps people process painful memories and difficult experiences rapidly — often within a few sessions — without requiring you to talk through every detail. I also draw on Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and somatic approaches depending on what each person needs.

I work with adults navigating loss, major life changes, and the aftermath of traumatic experiences. I am also fluent in Spanish and welcome Spanish-speaking clients.

I received my Master of Social Work from Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Yeshiva University and have trained extensively in trauma-focused modalities.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing psychiatric evaluations and medication management for children, teens, adults, and older adults.

I help people with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma/PTSD, sleep problems, stress, and mood concerns.

I offer both in-person and virtual appointments in Florida and virtual in Oregon. I take time to listen, understand what you are going through, explain your treatment options clearly, and work with you to create a treatment plan that fits your needs and goals.

My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and involved in your mental health care.

If you're looking for a therapist who honors your story, sees the systems around you, and supports your growth with compassion and curiosity, look no further. With over 15 years of experience in mental health, I have had the privilege of working alongside extraordinary people, believing that people heal best when they feel seen. I value the concept of slowing down, breathing, and reconnecting with one's strengths. I work with individuals, teens, couples, and families, and I'm especially passionate about supporting people who juggle multiple roles or feel the weight of others' expectations. I have a bachelor's in human development and family studies, a master's in clinical mental health counseling, and I am currently working towards a doctorate degree in marriage and family therapy.

Hi, I’m Renée Rivers, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in South Florida. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, teens, and families navigating trauma, identity, and major life transitions. As a first-generation Haitian-American woman, I deeply understand the cultural and intergenerational layers that shape how we relate to ourselves and others. My clinical work is grounded in empathy, accountability, and authenticity, I create a space where you don’t have to explain “everything” because I hold space for complexity. I am especially passionate about helping clients unlearn survival patterns that no longer serve them and redefine success, connection, and rest on their own terms.

I’ve worked in school settings, community mental health agencies, and now lead my own private practice, Reflective Rivers Therapy & Consulting. I hold a master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Counseling with a specialization in Couples and Family Therapy.

Hola, I’m Mercedes. I’m a bilingual (English | Spanish) psychotherapist who supports individuals navigating Anxiety, Trauma, and significant life transitions. My approach incorporates somatic principles to help you develop greater Self-Awareness by listening to what your body is communicating.

I understand how easy it can be to lose touch with yourself when you’ve spent so much time surviving, adapting, or staying strong. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, feel truly understood, and reconnect with yourself so you can make decisions that feel more aligned with who you are and where you want to go.

It's difficult making the first phone call, booking an appointment and admitting you need help. Whether it's depression, anxiety, a mood disorder or trauma, it's frightening to admit that everything isn't how you want it to be and you don't have all the answers. If you're experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, intrusive thoughts or images, flash backs, numbness or insomnia, there is hope and there is help. I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and EMDR Therapist dedicated to supporting adults in overcoming mental health and behavioral challenges, particularly those rooted in trauma. Using EMDR, I assist clients process and heal from past traumas, enabling them to live more fully in the present. I employ a Solution-Focused Approach, emphasizing practical, goal-oriented strategies to empower clients to find solutions and foster meaningful behavior change.

I am accepting clients Tuesday–Friday mornings and early afternoons. Virtual only on Thursdays and Fridays.

For the past three years, I’ve had the honor of sitting with people through their real-life ups and downs, helping them build confidence, heal, and feel more connected to themselves. I’m a therapist who keeps it real: open, genuine, and never judgmental. You can talk to me about anything, and my priority is always to make sure you feel comfortable, understood, and never rushed. We’ll go at your pace, together.

I graduated from Penn State with a degree in Human Development and Family Studies and earned my master’s in Professional Counseling Psychology from Florida International University. I’m fully bilingual in English and Spanish, and I care deeply about creating a safe space for people from all cultures and backgrounds.

If you’re looking for a therapist who is easy to talk to, supportive, and truly gets it, then I’d love to connect with you!
