I am Melissa N. Douglas, LCSW, the founder of our practice, and I specialize in working with individuals and couples on healthy relationship building.

Licensed provider in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.

I started my journey in social work 12 years ago working with families impacted by the child welfare system and transitioned to providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. From that work, I gained experience with treating trauma, depression, grief/loss, anxiety, mood disorders, personality disorders, and without a doubt, relationships issues.

1. Listen to Understand
2. Stay Curious
3. Never Underestimate the Power of Unity

As a psychotherapist, my priority is to create a space where you can be free to explore and express your deepest truths. Whether individual or couple, our sessions together will help you slow down, identify, and understand those patterns that negatively impact your relationships. We will also uncover your attachment style and your ability to connect with yourself and others.
My approach is grounded in attachment theory, is solution-focused and client-centered. With specialized credentials as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I bring a blend of evidence-based practices geared towards the development and maintenance of healthy relationships. As a solo practitioner, I offer personalized virtual therapy sessions that accommodate your schedule and ensure you receive the focused attention you deserve. Together, we will work to uncover your emotional needs and develop strategies to meet your relational desires.
