Hi, I am Dr. Chriselda Fleming, a licensed psychologist in Maryland. For more than 25 years, I have helped adults move through life’s ups and downs - depression and anxiety, ADD/ADHD and bipolar disorder, relationship and family conflicts, trauma and PTSD, work stress and burnout, and the stuck, low-confidence moments that make life feel smaller than it should. My style blends practical tools from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with the depth and insight of brief psychodynamic work. We will focus on what’s happening now—habits, thoughts, and patterns that can actually change - while also getting curious about the experiences beneath the surface that still shape how you feel and relate today. Therapy should feel safe, respectful, and useful. I aim to create a steady, supportive space where you can understand yourself more clearly, practice new skills, and make decisions that align with who you want to be. Together, we will set a few clear goals, track progress, and adjust as we learn what works best for you. Starting therapy can feel like a big step. It is also a powerful one. My hope is that, over time, you feel more at ease in your daily life, more confident in your choices, and more connected to the version of yourself you are trying to grow into.

Hello! I'm Melanie, and I'm so glad you're here. With a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from Frostburg State University, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to our sessions. Before earning my Master’s, I completed a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and an Associate’s degree in Criminology. In 2007, I became a Maryland Board Certified Supervisor, which has further enriched my journey in mental health care. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor-Supervisor, my career has been diverse and fulfilling. I started as a School-Based Therapist working with children and families, and retired from maximum security corrections after a 20 year career. Alongside this, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals and couples in private practice, teaching as an adjunct professor on the Psychology of Adjustment, and supporting both males and females of all ages in a local detention center. Currently, I enjoy working with teenage and adult clients from all walks of life, whether it’s individual, couple, or family therapy. Over the last 20+ years as a mental health therapist, I’ve developed a deep passion for health and wellness. This led me to become certified as a personal trainer, nutrition coach, and gym owner towards the end of my career in corrections. Integrating my formal training as a therapist with my love for health has allowed me to adopt a holistic approach to treatment and life. I believe that no goal is too small or too large to accomplish, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. My therapeutic approach is direct and honest, and I’m very goal-driven. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I also incorporate Person-Centered and Solution-Focused approaches to tailor my style to each unique client. Whether you’re dealing with depression, family or romantic relationship issues, stress, anger management, antisocial behavior, or anxiety, I’m here to help you navigate these challenges. I look forward to the opportunity to work together and support you on your journey to wellness. Please feel free to reach out and take the first step towards a healthier, more fulfilling life.

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?
The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour.

- With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- With therapists: $100-300

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Hancock is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.
With a lot of people in MD, therapists may be booked out with clients.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.
