“Best therapist I’ve ever had. Makes you feel like you are very important. She recalls things discussed very organically and it makes it a lot more comfortable and important. She’s honest and not afraid to tell you that your choices weren’t necessarily the best in a caring way, which I definitely need from a therapist. She never made me feel judged even when I felt judged by everyone else in my life. She helped me through the hardest time in my life.”

Getting to know Franca Gaudio Peralta
I am experienced in working with addictions, veterans, LGBTQ individuals, couples, and adolescents from diverse populations. I specialize in life changes, relationship issues, women's issues, self-esteem challenges, and substance abuse. I also focus on supporting individuals and their families struggling with addiction, recognizing it as a family disease. Recently, I have worked with clients facing anxiety, mental health challenges, addictions, depression, trauma, and veterans dealing with addictions and PTSD.
I served for 10 years in the United States Marine Corps and specialize in working with active and reserve members, veterans, and their families in the armed forces. If you are a veteran or active-duty member having trouble reintegrating with your family or struggling with substance abuse, look no further-help is here!
I earned my Master's in Social Work from Barry University, which has equipped me with the skills to provide compassionate and effective care. I work extremely hard to create a safe environment where all clients feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of judgment. I am direct and honest, holding my clients accountable for their choices while providing feedback that supports their growth.

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.
