More about Melissa
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania with 10+ years of experience working in a variety of settings, including intensive outpatient programs for mental health and addiction, partial hospitalization programs, as well as working as a clinical supervisor for community behavioral health agencies with a focus in building strong relationships with families and communities along with the various school settings across Philadelphia. Additionally, I have seen clients in a private practice setting. I have knowledge and training in crisis management and de-escalation.
I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, self-harm, anxiety, career and life changes, ADHD, panic disorder and relationship issues. My approach is open, warm, laid back and interactive. I treat everyone with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. I will work hard with you to tailor our sessions and treatment plans to meet your specific goals and needs.
It takes honesty, courage, and insight to ask for help and take the first few steps towards change. I am here to support you, empower you, and cheer you on as you walk down this new path!
I am so excited to work with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
