    I started seeing Mirta Pont (Coral Gables Counseling Center) for EMDR therapy. I have struggled…read morewith extreme anxiety and depression for most of my life due to childhood and young adult trauma. I have tried everything to heal. I saw doctors, therapists, and self medicated with alcohol. On the outside I looked like I had it all together, but I was dying inside with crippling anxiety and depression. I have been sober for over a year, and live a very healthy life now, but was still overwhelmed with anxiety. A good friend, who is also a psychologist in another state, told me I needed to try EMDR. It has worked miracles for people with PTSD and Complex PTSD. We found Mirta through the EMDR website. Simply put, Mirta changed by life. Her work with me was nothing short of miraculous. I saw her for several sessions beginning in May. By August I felt like the me I have always wanted to feel like. I have no anxiety....ZERO. I have my life and the only way I can describe the feeling is pure freedom and happiness. Im writing this review in the hopes that it can help other people going through the same thing. Mirta is an amazing therapist and she helped me to save myself and open up to a life Im supposed to have. My insurance is terrible so I paid out of pocket. It was worth every penny!!! You cannot put a price on freedom from depression and anxiety. Mirta is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and professional. And I am beyond grateful that I found her! And yes, this has all been during COVID. We worked on-line on a secure site and it was just like being with her in an office.....but way more convenient. If your struggling, do yourself a favor and call her. I promise you will be so grateful you did.

    I had posted a review regarding my worrying and extensively unprofessional, even unethical,…read moreexperience placing my mental and physical health with Ms. Rahman for others to be aware when seeking care for themselves. After several serious issues which needed addressing, I had a conversation with her and Lucy Fernandez, in charge of the office, in which I at least felt Ms. Fernandez validated the actual evidence of issues I had because of this person. Today, Ms. Fernandez wrote me to ask I remove my negative review because "we both understand how important these reviews are." I did so to avoid future communication with the office. Then I realised I do know how important they are which is why I wrote it in the first place and decided I needed to keep this truth here. Not everyone has a negative time, in fact, as I previously stated, I had worked with two other professionals here who for whom I have only the highest praise. But Ms. Rahman has no regard for patients and now I see her superior holds stars on Yelp more important than a patient's warning to others in the same vulnerable position. I would've respected her asking me to update my review after our conversation to credit her efforts (again Ms. Rahman only furthered her negative qualities throughout the talk) but this I found to be a form of bullying for self-advancement. Unfortunate for a mental health care professional. Our relationship has now ended with me asking they refrain from future contact with me.

    This is a greedy company with very greedy people. They charge you for your appointment early in the…read moremorning day of your appointment, basically washing their hands on everything that might happen that same day, they simply don't care. Interestingly enough they don't call or text you days before the appointment, so it's a win win for them because they charge $75 for no show and your copayment fot the day as well. And they don't keep your file after a month, so if for X or Y reasons you can't go they erase you from the system and then you have to fill out all the paperwork again. My personal experience was very bad and shady. Don't go there.

    My husband and I have had a wonderful experience with Lotus Counseling Center, specifically…read moreVictoria Raymond. We sought out her assistance/help as roughly six months ago my husband and I hit a breaking point (in full disclosure) with many life changes going on (cross-country move, differences in habits/space, job-related change etc.). To be transparent, I felt (because of the circumstances) we were on our last leg. The only thing I could think of to help was maybe therapy so I looked online and saw Lotus (and Victoria) had good reviews and instantaneously requested to book a session with her. I had been to two other relationship counselors in another city from some time ago that did not help at all, so was not quite confident (even with seeing good reviews about this center) that our situation could be helped. I have to say I was wrong about my doubts. Victoria was very easy to talk to, listened objectively and provided some strategies and exercises that truly caused us to think differently and apply different methods which started to improve our daily interactions. I also like that she is direct and honest. She is not one of those therapists that asks 'how does that makes you feel' while scribbling on a note pad and looking at you robotically like you're a specimen in a lab. Of course she cares about how you feel and does ask, but she also has personality and gives her opinion/thoughts to you straight while showing empathy at the same time. She does not take sides, but if you are acting in a way that's not being constructive to yourself or your partner, she will let you know. I like that direct approach, but it is not in a harsh way.. it is straightforward and meant to help, which in our case, it did! She truly cares about your progress as an individual and a couple and this has been evident in her work with us. My husband and I, after starting on very shaky ground prior to seeing Victoria, are at a much better place in our relationship, have been communicating ten fold better, have gotten the *spark* (romance) back and honestly feel that we are doing better now than when we were in the 'honeymoon' phase of our relationship (we have been together almost 7 years). We were doing therapy once a week and still plan to talk to/see (after Covid 19 situation improves) Victoria for 'tune ups'/check ins as needed (I believe therapy is not a bad thing to partake in, even when things aren't at their worst), but can say that the bulk of our challenge/mission has been complete and my husband has mellowed out significantly (thank the Lord, Amen! lol). In all seriousness, I highly recommend Victoria and Lotus Counseling Center for your counseling needs, especially couples counseling (since this is what I can speak on). We can't thank Victoria enough and the whole staff there is very nice and professional (and handles insurance billing in a competent manner as well). Stay safe out there folks and hope everyone finds themself mentally and emotionally balanced during these Covid times. God bless.
