Dr. Daniela De Medeiros, Psy.D, MS.Ed
Psychologist
Virtual & in-person • 26 mi away • Coral Gables, FL
You’re tired of explaining yourself. To doctors, to family, to people who mean well and still don’t get it. You’re the strong one, the responsible one, the person everyone leans on, and nobody sees what it’s costing you.
I’m Dr. Daniela De Medeiros, a clinical psychologist in Miami with over a decade of experience working with teens and adults from all walks of life. I work with people navigating anxiety, panic disorder, depression, ADHD, trauma, low self-esteem, grief, life transitions, identity, family conflict, relationship struggles, women’s issues, and the emotional weight of chronic illness and chronic pain. I hold a doctoral degree in clinical psychology (Psy.D.) and a master’s in mental health counseling, with specialized training in health psychology. I’m also trilingual and conduct sessions in English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
Most people who find me are exhausted, a little unsure therapy will even help, and carrying more than they let anyone see. You don’t have to have it all figured out to start.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Fort Lauderdale, FL
Searching for therapists in Fort Lauderdale starts with knowing what kind of support you want. A therapist may help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life changes. As you compare Fort Lauderdale therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match your needs. Their bio can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what you can expect in a session.
Fort Lauderdale has a broad mental health care community, with options across neighborhoods like Victoria Park, Las Olas, and nearby areas in Broward County. Your search may include in-person appointments near home or work, virtual sessions that fit your schedule, or a mix of both. Beyond specialty, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, has appointment times that work for you, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and decide who may be a strong fit.
Therapy in Fort Lauderdale can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care more affordable.
