Family Consultation & Care Planning in Plantation, FL

If you're caring for a parent or loved one whose memory or daily needs are changing, you already know the hardest part isn't just the caregiving itself — it's not knowing where to start. Serenity Counseling Solutions now offers Family Consultation & Care Planning in Plantation, FL: a focused, private-pay session built for families navigating dementia care and increasing care needs.

What Is Family Consultation & Care Planning?

Family Consultation & Care Planning is a 60-minute private-pay session with Sarine Salama, LMHC-QS, built for families who need clarity, not a diagnosis. It is not psychotherapy and is not billed to insurance — it's a dedicated space to think through what your family is facing and what to do next. Sessions are $200, with a $100 fee for late cancellations or no-shows, and telehealth is available statewide for families who can't make it into the Plantation office.

How Families Search for This Kind of Support

Most families don't go looking for "family consultation and care planning" by name — they're searching for something closer to what they're actually feeling: "how to plan care for a parent with dementia," "family meeting about aging parent Plantation FL," "dementia care consultation near me," or "how do I talk to my siblings about mom's care." If any of that sounds familiar, this service was built for exactly that moment.

What a Care Planning Consultation Covers

Every family's situation is different, but sessions commonly work through:

• Understanding what's changing and what typically comes next

• Sorting through care options — in-home help, day programs, assisted living, or staying the course

• Preparing for a difficult family conversation about a loved one's care

• Working through caregiver guilt, sibling disagreement, or decision fatigue

• Building a concrete next-step plan you can act on right after the session

Who This Is For

This service is for adult children, spouses, and family caregivers in Plantation and across Florida who are supporting a loved one with dementia, Alzheimer's, or other increasing care needs — whether you're just starting to notice changes or you're already deep in the day-to-day and need a plan, not more advice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Family Consultation & Care Planning covered by insurance?

No. This is a private-pay service — $200 per 60-minute session, with a $100 fee for late cancellations or no-shows. It isn't billed to insurance because it isn't psychotherapy.

Is this the same as therapy?

No. It's a consultation focused on understanding your loved one's care needs and building a plan — not an ongoing course of psychotherapy. If therapy would help too, Sarine can talk through that with you separately.

Can we do this by telehealth?

Yes. Telehealth is available statewide, so families anywhere in Florida can book a session even if they can't get to the Plantation office.

Who leads the consultation?

Sarine Salama, LMHC-QS, who works with families across South Florida on caregiver stress, dementia care planning, and the emotional weight of caring for a loved one with increasing needs.

If you're trying to figure out the next right step for your family, a single focused session can save weeks of guessing. Reach out to Serenity Counseling Solutions to schedule a Family Consultation & Care Planning session in Plantation, FL, or by telehealth anywhere in Florida.
