A Little About Me

Hi, I’m Melyssa! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I specialize in working with teens, adults, and families facing a range of mental health challenges. With five years of experience in social work, I have a strong background in domestic violence and severe mental illness, and I’m passionate about using art therapy as a tool for self-expression and healing.

My Approach to Therapy

Collaborative & Personalized – Therapy is a team effort. I believe in working together to create a treatment plan that fits your unique needs and goals.

Safe, Non-Judgmental Space – My priority is to foster an environment of trust and respect, where you feel comfortable exploring your emotions, challenges, and personal growth.

Creative & Expressive – I incorporate art therapy into my work, providing an alternative way to process emotions and communicate thoughts that may be difficult to express in words.

Who I Work With

I provide therapy for teens, adults, and families, helping them navigate challenges such as:

• Anxiety & Depression

• Trauma & PTSD

• Life Transitions

• Emotional Regulation

• Family & Relationship Concerns

Why Choose My Approach?

Empathetic & Supportive – I’m here to listen, support, and empower you in your journey toward self-discovery and healing.

Evidence-Based Practices – I use a combination of:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Reshaping negative thought patterns

• Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) – Strengthening emotional regulation skills

• Mindfulness Techniques – Reducing stress and increasing self-awareness

Let’s Begin the Journey

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to walk alongside you, help you heal, and create meaningful change in your life. Let’s connect and start this journey together!
