Getting to know Circe Dunwoody

My name is Circe Dunwoody. I am a licensed psychotherapist with a Master's in Social Work from Barry University in Miami Shores. In my psychotherapy practice, I help couples and individuals overcome life difficulties by using cognitive behavior therapy. Many couples and individuals feel overwhelmed by the desire to balance the high demands of work and family life. They report feelings of emptiness and loss of drive. Some experience depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. Others contemplate divorce as a way to reduce the pressure they are internalizing. You can contact me for help if you are experiencing some of the feelings I have mentioned above and are ready to make changes in your life. I work with couples and individuals in a safe and confidential platform environment. In life, we all need support and understanding from others. Sometimes the best solution is to seek professional help. Having emotional support is extremely helpful. Relying on friends or family members is also valuable; however, you may not want to overwhelm them with your problems. The most intelligent solution is seeking professional help.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Potential benefits of psychotherapy session are: 1) Better understanding of the situation 2) Express feelings and emotions in a safe environment 3) Greater ability to communicate with others 4) Assertiveness skills 4) Increased self-confidence 5) How to manger emotions in a healthy way

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.

Circe is very direct, is willing to share her experience, and is very much resolution-oriented. In our first session, I feel like she got a good bead on what I need to do, and provided me with ideas for how to move forward.

Circe is your cheerleader, and supporter. She always advocates. for you no matter what, and gives you logical solutions on resources and ways to resolve problems or concerns. She is also straightforward and will give you advice and scenarios to look out for as you navigate various challenges. She is also very empowering, if that is something you are looking for.
She reminds me to take care of myself and “pay myself first” as my mom would say. I like that she opens the meeting with conversational greetings and then asks what I would like to discuss in each session.
Circe came into my life when I needed it most. She listens, gives great follow-up to challenge me & help me. I really appreciate her support and help
Very good ! I recommend 100%
