Why we started Fit Counseling
Fit Counseling was founded by Alicia Mercedes, LMHC to make therapy easier to reach across Florida. Driving to an office, working around a rigid schedule, or searching for a therapist who understands your background should not stand between you and support.
Based in Coral Springs, FLand serving clients statewide across Florida.
Every session takes place over a secure, HIPAA-compliant video portal. When you reach out, our client care coordinator talks with you in a free 15-minute consultation and matches you with a clinician who fits your needs, insurance, and preferences.
