Space Coast Counseling Center, Inc. opened in 2005 and is proud to continue to serve the Central FL community.
Friends and family can be invaluable supports, but sometimes life gets overwhelming and even the strongest of us require a neutral, experienced, empathetic and skilled professional to help us make positive changes and be healthier and happier. Stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, self-esteem, co-dependency, assertiveness training, panic disorder, communication, relationship issues and parent education and training are just some of the issues Lana can help you with.
Lana Beasley, LMHC, NCC has over 27 years of professional psychotherapy experience in central FL and is a FL Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a National Board Certified Counselor.
Lana is currently providing individual and couples psychotherapy in person and on a state-of-the-art banking grade encrypted, easy to use HIPAA and HITECH compliant telemedicine platform with HD visual and audio. Confidentiality and security is ensured, with only a few legally mandated exceptions for all psychotherapists (for example, if you threatened to harm yourself or someone else, authorities would be contacted for your safety or the safety of others).
Insurances/Finances
Unlike some big box companies that have recently sprung up, Lana is an in-network provider for Aetna, HealthFirst, Optum, United Healthcare, UMR and regular Medicare. If you have insurance with one of these companies, your benefits are verified and you are informed of them prior to your first session and claims are submitted on your behalf. Depending upon your coverage and benefits, your insurance company may pay some or most of the cost of your therapy. Lana is NOT a provider for any type of Medicaid, Blue Cross Blue Shield or Medicare HMOs. If you have out of network benefits, you would need to self-pay and then you would submit an invoice to your insurance company. Clients are responsible for co-pays, deductibles and any costs insurance does not pay. Payment is due at time of services and VIsa, MC, HSA and debit cards are accepted.
Self-pay sessions are: $120 per 60-minute Individual session and $150 per 60 minute couples session.
Treatment
Individual counseling takes place between the therapist and the client. Couples counseling takes place between the therapist and 2 adults (who may or may not be married).
Treatment begins with an intake, in which your consent for treatment is obtained, relevant background information is gathered, expectations and limitations of treatment are discussed, and together, treatment goals are established. Therapy is most effective when scheduled on a consistent weekly or bi-weekly basis and sessions are of 45-60 minutes duration. Lana schedules her clients for consistent weekly or bi-weekly standing appointments to ensure current clients scheduling needs are met. Trust, respect, honesty and openness are critical to establishing the therapeutic relationship and to making progress. A willingness to actively participate during sessions and consistently implement strategies between sessions results in the fastest movement towards health and happiness. Counseling requires a consistent commitment and work. Virtual counseling takes place on a secure HIPAA compliant, HITECH platform in order to ensure confidentiality and security.
Length of treatment and progress are variable and involve many factors. Some clients make significant progress and reach their treatment goals in as little as 6 weeks, while others require greater than 6 months of therapy for more complex, long standing issues.
Clients with addiction issues are advised to seek therapy with counselors who specialize in this area. Look for CAP (Certified Addictions Professionals) after their names. Licensed Professional Counselors do not prescribe medications. Seek the services of a psychiatrist. No classes or groups are currently offered.
Referrals
The client must call to schedule their own appointments. All therapy services are voluntary. The wait time to begin services varies.
