Hi, I’m Melissa — a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey and Pennsylvania with a Master of Science in Counseling and over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I provide online therapy for teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, self-doubt, and relationship challenges.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I’m committed to ongoing professional growth through advanced training, consultation, and continuing education to ensure I provide thoughtful, effective, and high-quality care tailored to each client’s unique needs.

I have a strong personal connection to nature, which I believe can be a powerful tool for healing. I enjoy spending time outdoors, camping, hiking, surfing, and even farming—which allows me to maintain a sense of balance and peace.

Thank you for taking the time to take a look at my profile!

I’ve been working in the mental health field in New Jersey since 2007, when I began my career toward becoming a licensed professional counselor (LPC). I soon settled into the role of clinical therapist, being recognized as a National Certified Counselor (NCC) by the National Board of Certified Counselors, with a tendency to most frequently work with those coping with anxiety, depression, and relationship problems.

In 2020, I left the community clinic I had been working with to form a private practice. Here, I can meet with and focus on my clients, providing each with the attention they deserve. One of the primary purposes of coming to therapy is to be heard. I am here to listen.

Not just listen, though! We work together to come up with a solution to the problem or issue you are working through. As we discuss what has and hasn’t worked for you in the past, we learn to tell the difference between a healthy, productive way to cope and a less-than-desirable way to deal with your problem.

Therapy should be uniquely tailored to each person. I work with clients to identify patterns of behavior that may have contributed to difficulties in relationships—with family, friends, or at work or school—and help find ways to create positive change. We learn to change our perspective on life, our past, our entire reality, and recognize that we really can control how we think and what we think about.
