Hi, I’m glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania, and I work with children, teens, and adults who are dealing with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and family struggles. Over the years, I’ve supported families facing tough transitions, kids on the autism spectrum, and people who are trying to rebuild after life has knocked them down.
My style is down-to-earth, supportive, and focused on helping you feel stronger and more hopeful. In our sessions, you’ll have space to be heard without judgment while we work together to move toward the goals that matter most to you.
Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stressed, lonely, or uncertain? You don't have to face life's challenges on your own. I provide a supportive, compassionate space where we can work together to help you better understand your experiences, develop effective coping strategies, and move toward greater balance and well-being.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, work-related stress, identity exploration, health challenges, family conflict, or relationship concerns, I offer an empathetic, inclusive approach tailored to your unique needs. Together, we'll address challenges in your relationships—with partners, spouses, family members, friends, or colleagues—as well as the demands of caregiving for children, loved ones, or aging parents.
I welcome individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds, including clients of all genders, ethnicities, races, and LGBTQ+ identities.
All therapy sessions are offered virtually, providing convenient, confidential care from the comfort of your own home.
You deserve a place where you feel heard, understood, and supported. If you're ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.
In therapy, it's important for you to know that I'm here to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings freely. My approach is collaborative and compassionate—I’ll work with you to understand your experiences and help you move toward meaningful change. I value honesty, curiosity, and respect, and I’ll always meet you where you are emotionally and mentally. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we begin; we’ll navigate this process together at your pace.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to providing a safe, supportive, and clinically grounded environment for individuals and families navigating life’s most difficult challenges. Since earning my Master’s Degree in Social Work in 2004, I have spent over 15 years helping people move from places of uncertainty and pain toward clarity, resilience, and confidence.
I have a M.S. Mental Health Counseling graduate degree with a specialization in Substance Abuse Disorder, a M.A. Psychology graduate degree and an undergraduate B.A. Psychology degree.
I have worked in a variety of settings including hospitals, detox and rehab facilities, outpatient PCP and IOP mental health and individual private practice. I have worked with a range of different clients from many different backgrounds and ages (children, preteen, teen, adult and elderly).
I have over 20 years experience in mental health working with individuals, couples and families of all ages. I have worked in homes, schools. communities, and outpatient settings. I specialize in teaching effective communication skills and problem resolution skills to all my clients. I am very active and directive and help clients work toward solutions to their problems. I am a Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician, trained in Somatic Psychotherapy and value mind-body health.
I am a therapist who genuinely loves this work and the people I get to do it with. I work with adults who are navigating big life changes, relationship shifts, and the kind of moments that make you stop and ask "who am I now?" My approach is flexible and collaborative, so we figure out together what you need and how to get there. I work fully virtually, so you can show up to sessions from wherever feels most comfortable for you.
Something feels off, and no matter what you try, you can't shake it. Maybe anxiety has become background noise, following you through meetings and quiet moments. Maybe you're still carrying something heavy, whether that's
depression, grief, or trauma that's never fully settled. Or life has shifted in an unexpected direction, a relationship strained, a season of infertility, a loss you're still carrying. I'm Melissa, an LCSW with experience in community
mental health, schools, and hospital settings since 2013. I work with children, teens, adults, and families across Pennsylvania. Therapy with me is practical, honest, and always at your pace.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Pennsylvania. I received my Masters of Social Services from The Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research at Bryn Mawr College (2019). I received my Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from Binghamton University, SUNY (2012). I am trained and have been certified as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (2021). I am certified in Yoga RYT-200(2014), and in Reiki 1 and 2 (2012).
