Getting to know Dr. Ana M Lopez

Thank you for taking the first step toward seeking help. That is the first step to reaching your potential and a happier, more fulfilling life. My name is Dr. Ana Mercedes Lopez. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Certified Health Care Provider with over 28 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults (English and Spanish speaking). I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology from Nova Southeastern University. I love working with others and believe that life provides us with continual opportunities for personal growth and change because we are all “a work in progress.” I have a wide range of experience working with individuals and a particular passion for helping people, especially those with a history of psychological trauma, including sexual, physical, and emotional abuse and neglect. Over many years, I have worked with a diverse range of clients, and I look forward to working with you to help you achieve your goals and maintain a healthy, positive outlook on life. I have a warm and friendly style and strongly believe in the importance of the therapeutic bond and building a healthy, trusting relationship with you. When working with me, you can expect someone who is both knowledgeable and down to earth. I look forward to helping you build on your strengths in a nonjudgmental way that supports your growth toward your potential.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You can expect me to take full interest in understanding your individual struggles. I will take the time to get to know you as an individual and to understand your unique qualities. You can also expect that I will be active in the session in providing you with the tools that will promote self-discovery and positive change. I will also take steps to understand your attachment style, love language, and other aspects of your personality which will help me to tailor the treatment to your specific needs and personality style. As appropriate, I will bring up different interventions which you can apply to your particular situation which will help you to challenge yourself to reach a higher level of functioning. I will value you as an individual, and will always try to highlight your strengths.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
