COVID 19 Response

We have changed but we’re still the same.

~ Gwen Stefani

**Update May 14, 2021**  Effective July 1, 2021 and in accordance with SB2006 signed by Florida Governor DeSantis on May 3, 2021, fully vaccinated clients will no longer be required to wear face masks when visiting our office. This means that we will resume offering in-person therapy sessions. However, please be advised that the staff of Envision Wellness reserve the right to ask for proof of COVID-19 vaccination to provide in-person services without a mask.  As health care providers licensed under Chapter 490 of Florida Statutes, the staff of Envision Wellness is exempt from prohibitions to require documentation certifying COVID-19 vaccination per SB2006, Section 18 which creates 381.00316 COVID-19 vaccine documentation (6).

**Update April 23, 2021**  Our team is completing the COVID vaccination process in the hopes of returning to in-person sessions as soon possible.  In the meantime, we continue to offer therapy sessions online/telehealth (unless clinically contraindicated). Psychological evaluations continue to take place in-person with safety precautions.

**Update July 6, 2020**  Due to the worsening COVID situation in Miami-Dade County, we will return to offering therapy sessions exclusively online (unless clinically contraindicated). Psychological evaluations continue to take place in-person with safety precautions.

**Update June 1, 2020**  As of Monday, June 8, 2020, Envision Wellness will resume all in-person psychological services. We have taken steps to reduce the risk of spreading the coronavirus (COVID 19) within the office. These efforts include:COVID 19 Coronavirus psychologist therapist miami psicologo terapeuta
