Bougainvilla House – Fort Lauderdale

We were referred to the Bougainvilla House by Joe Dimaggio Hospital. We were assigned a therapist (Michael) and his student assistant Jacob. We had the best experience, especially in a troublesome time for our son. The… care, concern and expertise was TOP NOTCH! FInding a therapist that clicks and is a good fit is tough. These guys were amazing. We visited 2x week for 2.5 months and our son was discharged with tons of tools and coping strategies. Michael and Jacob not only helped our son, but also taught us a lot about his diagnosis and what we as parents could do at home to help. I highly recommend TBH to any parent that is looking for a great therapist.

Incredible non profit to help the youth and their families! Thank you for all you do for the children 🤍

Great place that helps an underserved community. Our children. What an honorable cause and great people.

So glad I found this place. My daughter has been struggling with anxiety and bullying at school and since she has started attending sessions, her anxiety has become less And they have helped her with ways to deal with… the bullying. It has made a big difference in her life. Highly recommend.

My son has not been going long but he really loves Daniela. He is always excited to see her and enjoys his1:1 time.

Do not bring your children here they don't listen

Cici and Veronica are the best ...bottom line! If anyone feels any different contact me

This place is the most unprofessional place I have ever been to. My stepchildren started going here for reunification therapy and when my daughter started having nightmares and issues in school because of the… reunification therapy. The owner Cici told us that it wasn't her problem and that she needs to grow up. Like you're a place that's supposed to help with stuff like this and you make that kind of comment. Not to mention Cici was more for helping the abuser than my children who are the victims. And because of that, I wouldn't let my son come here. I would never come back here if my children ever need therapy again. And another thing, they will try to charge your insurance even if you have a court order that states the other parent is the one that's supposed to pay. So I really think that they try to double dip by charging one parent by cash and the other through the insurance company. There is no consideration for the well-being of the child. I highly recommend you take your kids somewhere else!!! And lastly this place is very unwelcoming.

Today I attempted to put my 4 children on the waitlist for services. Within the conversation I shared we moved from MI and I joked we were running from the cold, and the person I spoke with said “or the governor”… I was… shocked, so I said what was that? And she restated her opinion. I then said that’s why we moved here was to remove our family from the conservative community we were in to a more inclusive and diverse community within Fort Lauderdale, so she lost me with that comment. I’m sharing so that other families from marginalized communities are aware and can possibly avoid a biased therapy environment.

I will give them 0 stars nothing but a scam charging abusive fees to parents who are seeking treatment fir their kids . The lack of professionalism is beyond anything they lies and make up exercises to charge . The… therapist don’t talk to parents regarding the treatment . Good forgive you get sick or something happened to you that you miss the appointment they will charge you $150 for 1 hour appointment even if you call them . You mother and father that are struggling with with kids stay away from this scam place your kid won’t get any help and you will end up with a huge debt . I wish I’ve read the reviews before I even consider taking my son there .

Two months ago, my husband and I were broken and lost and had no idea how to handle our 17 year old son’s out of control behavior that was affecting our entire family, including his well being. Through a friend of a… friend (and God) CiCi Kelley was placed in our lives to help navigate these uncharted waters that were unfolding and we had no idea where to turn. Even though we live 300 miles away, and we still to this day have not met CiCi, she immediately stepped in to help guide us on how best to help our son. If you are looking for help with your adolescent, stop the search and go to The Bougainvilla House. CiCi is a talented expert with a tremendous amount of dedication to help not only the patient, but the entire family. The plethora of phone calls, follow up (even when she was on vacation) and finding a place for my son is something we will never forget. We refer to CiCi, in our home, as the Dr. Oz of adolescence.

Bougainvilla House is very welcoming and friendly with a great staff. They have been very successful in treating both children & families since their inception. I am very pleased to give them the highest recommendation

Bougainvilla House has successfully assisted the children and families of south Florida build successful lives for several years now. They are a non profit that puts clients needs first and it shows in everything they… do!

Comfortable, clean, welcoming environment with top-notch staff. Our family received excellent care and we couldn't be more grateful for The Bougainvilla House.

I had a great experience with Cici and the staff at The Bougainvilla House. I brought my teenage twins in for counseling and was impressed with the facility and staff. My children both felt comfortable and safe to open… up to the therapist leaving us all with a very positive impression. A wonderful non-profit facility providing a much needed service to our community. Staff is very informative, helpful and confidential. Highly recommend their services.

This year started out very difficult for our family. My 16 year old was struggling with severe depression. We tried everything to help and nothing seemed to be working. The next thing I knew we received help from Cici… Kelly CEO of Bougainvilla House.A family member contacted Cici and she reached out to us. I will never be able to thank Cici enough for the help and guidance she provided us. We were 1800 miles away and desperate for help. Cici participated over the phone in a family discussion that included my 16 year old. That phone call started the healing process and Cici never let us down for a second. Constant follow up calls and emails from Cici came all the time and when we needed her help the most. My now 17 year old, is thriving and happy. The expertise, guidance, support and honest compassion for our child's well being that we received from Cici will never be forgotten. Our family was truly blessed by Cici. We will be forever grateful and thankful. I highly recommend Bougainvilla House.
