As a compassionate therapist with extensive experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice focuses on helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, and interpersonal dynamics with empathy and understanding. I offer a welcoming, inclusive approach that honors diverse experiences and identities. My therapeutic style centers on building trust, fostering self-love, and supporting personal growth. I'm particularly skilled in addressing communication challenges, social anxiety, trauma recovery, and life transitions. My approach is holistic and person-centered, drawing from evidence-based practices to help clients develop resilience, improve relationships, and rediscover their inner strength. Whether you're struggling with workplace stress, relationship difficulties, or personal growth, I'm committed to walking alongside you with genuine care and professional expertise. I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and am dedicated to creating a supportive, non-judgmental therapeutic environment where you can explore your challenges and potential for healing.

I am a therapist with thirty years of experience. I have worked in community mental health and private practice, providing a wealth of knowledge and experience with the seriously and persistently mentally ill, along with conditions such as depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflict, and personality disorders. I have a history of couple's therapy, although currently I am not accepting clients of this type. My approach is caring and compassionate, and I'll want to hear about your symptoms and strategies you've used for dealing with them. In addition, I'll want to know about your living situation and family of origin to get a better sense of whom you are. I use a variety of modalities including interpersonal therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and solution focused therapy. In addition, I'll use other approaches, depending on what you are dealing with and what will help you in the best way possible. I'll look forward to meeting you soon to begin your journey of improving your life situation. I especially enjoy working with females suffering with low self esteem, codependency, life adjustment and relationship issues. Some additional points: If you have had suicidal thoughts, with or without intent, within the past year, my recommendation is that you seek more intensive treatment than online therapy. I understand that all of us have emergencies and are sometimes late for an appointment. If you are late, I will wait for you for ten minutes, but after that, I will ask you to reschedule so you get the benefits of your whole session. I also expect you to attend your appointments. We all have emergencies; but, with that said, if you no show or cancel without 48 hours advance notice more than once, I will ask you to be reassigned to another therapist.

Expression is essential in everyday life, especially when working through difficult times. In some circumstances, it can be difficult to verbally express oneself. Creative expression can demonstrate one’s thoughts and feelings in a tangible way that verbal expression is not always able to. Art Therapy can be helpful in exploring one’s thoughts and feelings and fostering self-awareness. As an Art Therapist, I have the ability and knowledge to bring artmaking into therapy to help facilitate the healing process. I practice with a person-centered, strength based, creative approach to meet clients where they are and help them start to make changes and heal. I graduated with my Masters in Art Therapy with a Specialization in Counseling in 2014 from Seton Hill University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), as well as a Board-Certified Registered Art Therapist (ATR-BC). I have experience with Trauma Informed Care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, as well as Crisis Intervention.

Hello! Welcome! I’m excited to get to know you. Together, we’ll create a safe space where you can feel understood and supported. I’m Melissa, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. Reaching out for support is a big step, and my goal is to make sure you feel understood, supported, and encouraged as we work together. I help people who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, or the stress of balancing many responsibilities. Together, we’ll explore what’s weighing on you, identify practical strategies, and build on your strengths so you can feel more grounded, resilient, and at peace in your daily life. My style is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you. I draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Trauma-Focused CBT. No matter which tools we use, I always work from a trauma-informed, compassionate perspective where you can share openly without judgment. I’m happy to include Christian-based therapy if that feels supportive to you. If not, that’s completely okay—we can focus on whatever feels most helpful for you. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Edinboro University in 2017 and have been a practicing social worker since 2013, with experience in hospitals, schools, community mental health, residential treatment, and child assistance programs. I also bring personal experience with foster care and adoption, which gives me unique insight into the challenges many individuals and families face. Most importantly, I believe you don’t have to walk this path alone. I’d be honored to support you as you move toward a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values. Warmly, Melissa

The helping profession which is often referred to as therapy or counseling has been my life-long goal. My desire has made me a patient, attentive, and non-judgmental listener and has shaped my approach to understanding clients’ needs better. I am also supportive and seek positivity in every situation presented. I thrive to make clients feel safe including even reluctant clients to find their own way during treatment but also help clients to learn how to take personal responsibility to take charge of their behavior. I facilitate, encourage, empower, and help the client discover their potential to overcome barriers to treatment and find solutions and subsequently heal. I utilize approaches that are tailored to the client dependent on the issues, goals, and outcomes. Clients must be willing to participate to reach enlightenment to help them understand themselves in a new way and break from their own poor mindset and maladaptive behaviors. I hold a master’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in mental health counseling and am a licensed professional counselor in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey with 10 years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, and families. I am a multicultural counselor who believes that endogenous factors can control individual behavior. Hence, when clients realize and acknowledge the inside factor, it eventually can bring about healing. That is, I am not there to prove my client wrong but help them find their own way out of their self-entanglement or damaging belief. No one approach fits all clients. The therapeutic alliance that is the client-therapist relationship will become the greatest change agent-Trust, genuineness, and participation.

I want to offer client's a safe space to be themselves and share their experiences. Utilizing active listening and validation, I aim for clients to feel heard and understood.

A current college student or graduating soon? A young adult trying to determining what next steps are in life.
