Welcome!
Since 2010, Lukas Counseling has been treating a number of mental health and behavioral health problems (depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, ADHD, etc.). Our goal is to help families, to bring accessibility of behavioral health services to the Florida population, something that lacks throughout the great Sunshine State. We do that through a combination of telehealth and in-person therapy. The Mental Health Partner Physicians Trust Since 2010 - ™
COUNSELING/THERAPY
Counseling services are provided weekly, and individualized to your particular needs. Sessions are performed on a weekly basis at-home (in-school, as approved), or via Telehealth. We can also meet in-the-community if you don't want to receive us at your home. Our qualified and friendly counselors will meet with you and be your guide in helping you get better through any problem you are experiencing. Some clients receive counseling for a few months, others stay with us for years depending on the issue. See FAQ for more. Check Insurance Funding page for additional information and restrictions.
PSYCHOSOCIAL REHAB SERVICES
Also offered are Psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) services (reimbursed by all Medicaid Plans) for clients to address independent living needs or skills, such as social skills, money management, budgeting, and other interpersonal activities that the individual lacks due to an emotional or behavioral problem/disability. PSR can be done individually or in groups. Check Insurance Funding page for additional information and restrictions.
