Getting to know David Mervilus
I'm a Florida Licensed Qualified and Competent Client-focused Mental Health professional with more than 10 years of experience in the healthcare field as a Mental Health Therapist. I hold a master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Trinity International University, with a concentration in counseling psychology. I have successfully treated patients and clients with a variety of disorders. I have worked with students throughout the Broward County School District and am currently one of the Broward County school-based therapists.
I bring both academic and practical experience to my role as a Mental Health Professional and provide excellent and adequate service to clients. I easily build trust and apply the appropriate skills needed to help clients effectively. I strive to create a comfortable atmosphere in which clients feel valued and an integral part of their therapeutic treatment.
I am comfortable doing my part to bring harmony and success to patients. I am highly capable of conducting clinical assessments, creating personalized treatment plans, organizing successful therapy sessions, and supervising the course of treatment. I am knowledgeable in providing intensive school-based, in-home, and virtual services to successfully address mental health, emotional, and behavioral issues. Throughout my career, I have treated many clients suffering from various disorders, including Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, ADHD, Panic Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, PTSD, and substance abuse disorder.
What should a new client know about working with you?
1. Rapport Building:
Help the client feel more welcome. I consider specific steps that might make therapy more welcoming for the client. I develop a therapeutic relationship that will help foster growth and trust as the therapy sessions continues to progress.
2. Therapeutic relationship
The therapeutic alliance is a relationship, and ideally a close and trusting one. Relationships take time to build. My investment in these early interactions is an investment in the trust that will ultimately help a client open up.
3. Therapeutic process:
The therapeutic process is strengthened when the therapeutic relationship is healthy and then the process of therapy is continued through a variety of therapeutic interventions. Clients leave therapy with hope and with tools provided for progress.

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.
