Services Provided
Phone Consultation
Dr. Stewart provides free initial phone consultations to speak about your situation and help you determine whether she is a good fit for you or your family member.
Intake (Initial) Assessment
The initial appointment for therapy involves an in-person meeting in Dr. Stewart's Fort Lauderdale office. During this first meeting, Dr. Stewart will ask many questions to get to know you (or your child), learn about the issues you are facing, help you determine your goals, and assess your current strengths. Clients have ample opportunity to ask questions and receive feedback. At the end of the intake appointment, Dr. Stewart will provide you with some initial impressions and suggestions for a comprehensive treatment plan. Your input in this process is essential and these initial meetings tend to be very collaborative in nature.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is the appropriate treatment modality for many different presenting problems and involves one-on-one meetings with a therapist. While such meetings may take place in the office, they may also take place in your home, office, or school. Family members or significant others may be included in these sessions, if appropriate or desired. Sessions typically occur once per week, initially, and may decrease in frequency over time as you begin to accomplish your goals.
Intensive Treatment
Research has shown that intensive treatment can be beneficial for certain conditions including OCD, Social Anxiety, and Panic Disorder. Intensive treatment involves more frequent meetings with the therapist, and these sessions are typically of longer duration than individual therapy sessions. These sessions may also be conducted in your home, school, or other settings around South Florida, if appropriate. Intensive treatment may be a good option for those people who do not have access to specialized Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) therapists in their area.
Couples Therapy
Dr. Stewart frequently sees couples in treatment who are experiencing relationship conflicts, parenting issues, or dealing with the aftermath of infidelity. Couples therapy can be an effective tool to help improve communication, decrease conflict, and increase relationship satisfaction.
Family Therapy
Family therapy can be effective in helping families experiencing adjustment issues (i.e., separation, divorce). It can also be used to help strengthen family relationships and clarify roles and boundaries within a family.
Psychological and Psychoeducational Assessments
Dr. Stewart provides psychological and psychoeducational assessments to address learning issues, executive functioning, and personality concerns. Gifted evaluations are also conducted.
