Peter Willig, LMFT, FT - Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Fellow in Thanatology
I offer a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation to address any questions or concerns you may have prior to scheduling an appointment. To set up a phone consultation or to schedule your first appointment you may contact me by phone or email.
My academic accomplishments include a Bachelors of Science degree in Industrial/Organizational Psychology from the University of Florida and a Masters of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Saint Thomas University. Additionally I hold a Fellowship in Thanatology (FT) as a specialty designation in the field of Grief and Bereavement.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 30 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, families and groups. Special areas of focus include Grief and Bereavement, Depression, Anxiety, Family Dynamics, Child Development and Interpersonal Relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Systems based Family Therapy are primary in my practice. I began my career working with children and families at Miami Children’s Hospital Department of Psychiatry as Clinical Coordinator. I then joined the Children’s Bereavement Center (CBC), a non-profit grief program serving as Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Clinical Director. Currently I have a private practice, Family Life Design, which is focused on the emotional well-being of individuals, couples and families. I continue to be involved in the greater community providing professional education and training for both local and national organizations.
Professional associations include the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT), the Association for Death Education and Counseling (ADEC) and the National Alliance for Grieving Children (NAGC) where I have served as a Board of Directors’ member and past Board President.
Family Life Design is a private practice providing psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families. Based in Miami, FL and founded by Peter Willig, our emphasis is on providing guidance and support as you navigate life events and the emotions they bring. A safe and non-judgmental environment is integral to the therapeutic relationship and you should always feel that your needs guide our work together. While emotional growth may be challenging, therapy should offer you comfort, direction and a general sense of well-being. Please contact Peter at (786) 348-8360 if you would like to schedule some time.
