Psychology Practice – Wellness in Broward
Pembroke Pines, Florida is the home base for Wellness in Broward, a psychology practice led by Elizabeth Penela, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist in Florida (License #9177). The practice operates bilingually, offering services in both English and Spanish, and focuses exclusively on anxiety treatment and OCD treatment for adolescents and adults.
Dr. Penela provides individual therapy for teens and adults dealing with anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The practice also works with parents, offering guidance to help them support children managing anxiety-related concerns. The site emphasizes evidence-based approaches for these specialty areas, though specific therapeutic modalities are not detailed on the homepage.
In-person appointments are available at the Pembroke Pines office, with the practice noting that its South Florida reach extends to surrounding communities including Weston, Miramar, Cooper City, Boca Raton, Davie, Parkland, Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, and Plantation. Telehealth sessions are available to clients located in Florida and in all 43 PSYPACT participating states, expanding access to clients across much of the country.
Prospective clients are invited to schedule a free initial consultation to assess fit before committing to ongoing services. Insurance acceptance and fee schedules are referenced on the practice’s contact and fees page, though those specifics are not disclosed on the main homepage. The Spanish-language portion of the site makes the same services accessible to Spanish-speaking clients without the need for interpretation.
No year of establishment is stated on the site. Contact and appointment scheduling are available directly through the practice’s website. The practice serves individuals seeking specialized, focused care for anxiety and OCD rather than offering a broad range of general mental health services.
