The Psychology Group Fort Lauderdale is a therapy business in Fort Lauderdale, located at 2601 E Oakland Park Blvd, Ste 502, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33306. Its published phone number is (954) 488-2933.
The Psychology Group Fort Lauderdale is a boutique concierge psychology and therapy practice at 2601 E Oakland Park Blvd, Suite 502, half a mile from the Atlantic in east Fort Lauderdale. Dr. Jamie Long, a licensed clinical psychologist who holds Florida license PY7730 and a PsyD from Nova Southeastern University, is the managing partner. Six clinicians work here: psychologists Dr. Rachel Christopher and Dr. Savannah Walker, licensed mental health counselors José Ramirez, who is also a certified sex therapist, and Hailey Fitzpatrick, and registered clinical social work intern Corie Talano. Caseloads are capped on purpose, so appointments are not scheduled at the volume an insurance panel requires, and the treatment rooms are soundproofed.
Therapy covers anxiety, depression, PTSD and trauma, OCD, eating disorders, grief, insomnia, and relationship and sexual concerns, for adults, young adults, teens, and couples. The methods are named rather than implied: cognitive behavioral therapy, CBT for insomnia, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, EMDR, cognitive processing therapy, the Gottman Method, and hypnotherapy. LGBTQ+ affirming care, sports psychology, and life coaching are also offered. Licensed psychologists run the testing side: ADHD and IQ testing for adults and children, gifted and diagnostic clarification evaluations, career testing, and pre-surgical, pre-adoption, and egg donor or surrogate evaluations. Thirty-minute mini sessions, priced at about half a standard session, are available for stress, a decision, or a life transition that does not call for ongoing treatment. Online therapy runs on Doxy.me and is open to anyone in Florida.
Most of the therapists are out of network with insurance, which is the point of the self-pay model, though some clinicians accept Medicare and Aetna. Clients receive a superbill to submit for out-of-network reimbursement, and the practice publishes both a reduced fee application and a Good Faith Estimate policy. Session rates are not posted; the first step is a complimentary 15-minute orientation call used to match the caller with the right therapist before anything is scheduled. The office is open Monday through Friday from 9am to 7pm and Saturday from 9am to 1pm, closed Sunday. Call (954) 488-2933 or email [email protected]. In-person clients come from across east Broward, including Oakland Park, Wilton Manors, Victoria Park, Coral Ridge, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Pompano Beach, and Dania Beach.

The practice also offers LGBTQ+ affirming care, and both José Ramirez and Dr. Savannah Walker name LGBTQ+ clients among their specialties.
It means the practice is not organized around insurance requirements. Caseloads are limited, session length can be set as a mini, standard, extended, or double appointment, treatment records are not shared with an insurer, and clients are matched to a clinician rather than assigned one. The tradeoff is that most of the therapists are out of network.
Call (954) 488-2933, email [email protected], or request a callback through thepsychologygroup.com. The first step is a complimentary 15-minute orientation call to talk through goals and match you with a therapist. A full evaluation happens at the first session, where the therapist takes a history and builds a treatment plan.
