Minister Gail Wilson, LMFT
Do you want to feel more empowered and more respected? Do you want more effective tools to handle daily challenges? Do you want to get more out of life? Do you want a better family relationship? Do you want to improve your relationship with your partner? Only by restoring the broken connections can we be healed. Connection is health. -Wendell Berry Let me assist you in finding the next best step with lighten the load that life, work, family, and relationships places on you.
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Minister, Life Coach, Author, Entrepreneur and Public Speaker in South Florida. I’ve worked in the field since 2007 helping clients find their untapped potential, inner strength and a voice to be heard. While in 2022 opening a second practice to provide additional practitioners with Wilson Wellness Group, LLC.
As a professional woman, wife and mother of twins, communication and willingness to create healthy connections with one another is important. I aim to assist women, mothers and parents who have lost the connection and are lost in a sea of unhealthy communication. I’m able to do this through therapy and workshops available for the community.
I have assisted other professional clients with finding real life solutions to the many obstacles encountered in life. Whether it is personal growth, an intimate relationship, marital or transitional work and much more. Each client works on gaining confidence, trust and peace of mind and I’ll provide you with tools to move forward in a positive direction to achieving your goals.

FAQ'S
MGS Counseling & Therapy Services, LLC accepts Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Oxford and Oscar insurance providers.
Some additional providers who may be accepted with verification are AvMed, GEHA, Meritian, Harvard Pilgrim, UHC Plans, UMR, Oscar Small Health, United Healthcare Student, United Healthcare shared services and Allsavers.
In addition, we continue to take self-pay clients for those who do not want to use a third party for privacy reasons. Along with payments with Health Savings Accounts or Flexible Spending Accounts.
There are several reasons why many do not want to work with insurance companies. Typically, insurance will only cover couples counseling if one partner has a mental health diagnosis. When paying out of pocket, diagnosis is not necessary.
Your insurance provider will only pay for what they deem “medically necessary” and then they determine how many sessions you are allowed to have. When you privately pay, we work together to decide what is best for you.
When you use a third party, your information from our session is not confidential from your insurance provider as they require case notes and treatment plans.
It’s my personal belief that there is a therapist for everyone. I encourage all perspective clients to shop around for the right therapist. This is why I offer a free 10-minute consultation, so we can go over what your needs are and how we might work together. There is no commitment.
The law protects the relationship between therapist and client, and your information cannot be disclosed without written permission. However, there are certain exceptions.
- Suspected child abuse or dependent adult or elder abuse, for which I am required by law to report this to the appropriate authorities immediately.
- If a client is threatening serious bodily harm to another person/s, I must notify the police and inform the intended victim.
- If a client intends to harm him or herself, I will make every effort to enlist their cooperation in ensuring their safety. If they do not cooperate, I will take further measures without their permission that are provided to me by law in order to ensure their safety.
