Getting to know Lissette Fernandez

As an eclectic licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of experience and a Master's in Social Work from the University of South Florida, I bring a unique perspective shaped by my immigrant Latina background. I specialize in working with trauma, adolescents in school settings, couples, underserved populations, and the LGBTQ community. My diverse professional background, including work in EMT and firefighting, provides me with a deep understanding of high-stress situations and trauma. By integrating techniques from various therapeutic models, I tailor my approach to meet each client's unique needs. My multicultural and multidisciplinary experience equips me to offer compassionate and effective support, helping clients navigate their challenges and achieve their goals with confidence.

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.
