Hi, I'm Melisa.

I am passionate about helping my clients find peace in their own lives and their relationships. We can do this by identifying where you are struggling and setting goals to resolve issues and design a brighter future. After experiencing my own traumas and family difficulties and working through them, I know what it feels like to go through the process. And I know how it feels to come through to the other side and feel better about yourself and your life. 

​

I hold a Master ​of Arts degree in Marriage & Family Therapy with a concentration in Licensed Professional Clinical Counseling from Touro University Worldwide. I am experienced in working with people through trauma and disabilities and I believe it is important to treat the whole person, not just symptoms.  I am here to provide services for you to heal and feel happier. We will work together as a team to accomplish your desired goals. My practice is dedicated to providing a safe, affirming space for individuals of all backgrounds, sexual orientations. and gender identities.
