Merit Psychology Group clinicians recognize that being a human comes with stress, challenges, transitions, fears and anxieties that result in distress and sometimes limitations. We listen, and take an empathic and whole body and brain approach to therapy. We do not set out to change you instead we set out to assist you in being the best version of yourself.
