Therapists in Macungie, PA

I work best with clients ages 18 to 70 who are experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, loss, trauma or addiction. I enjoy assisting clients who are interested in addressing healthy coping skills, core beliefs, and who are open to examining what they think and how it impacts what they feel and how behaviors can be re-learned. I support diversity and welcome persons of all faiths or those who are atheists or humanists. In addition, I support the LGBT community. I believe that I connect well with most clients and find that those seeking treatment are much healthier and lovable than they believe they are.

Life can be challenging. Stress, anxiety, depression and relationship problems can affect a quality of your life. You might feel overwhelmed and unsure what to do. I help clients to learn about themselves, heal from negative life experiences, learn coping skills and have an exciting and satisfying sex life. I work with clients who have lack of sexual desire, difficulties with reaching an orgasm, pain during sex and erectile difficulties. I am a certified clinical trauma professional, and an AASECT certified sex therapist.

Hello, my name is Melissa Vega. I am passionate about allowing everyone to show up and share space with me however they are, right now. I believe that no one, inherently wants to engage in negative things and I think that we are all working with the tools that we have and the experiences that life has given and taught us. I am a master’s level therapist with over 20 + year’s experience in various settings within the mental health field. I like working with pre-teens, teens and adults. I am also a mom of three kids, so I understand that parenting and relationships comes with all sorts of barriers for both you and your children.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes that in any dynamic, whether it is in couples, family, or individual counseling; in order to achieve a healthy lifestyle it is a journey and every journey starts with one step. The first step is seeking help with a therapist that knows and understands what you are going through. Throughout my work as a therapist, I have worked with a diverse group of individuals in a wide array of settings. Working with a diverse population, I have learned and truly believe that it takes a collaborative approach to treatment in order to achieve a healthy lifestyle.

I serve men of any age, adolescents, and women, and work with trauma, depression, anxiety, and grief issues. I also understand and work with clients who struggle with or seek help with spiritual and/or religious issues. I spent many years in business working with working with people from various cultural, ethnic, and economic backgrounds.

I focus on helping individuals feel accepted and safe while supporting them in reaching their goals. I strive to help people find satisfaction in all aspects of their lives and to become the best friend, partner, parent, sibling, and SELF that they can be.

Are you feeling stressed or struggling emotionally? Are you going through significant life transitions? Experiencing losses? Feeling unhappy with yourself or in your relationships? Is your child or adolescent facing challenges? There is no doubt about it, we can find ourselves in difficult places as we journey through life. Most all of us have to face and go through tough times. As a seasoned therapist who has been practicing for more than 25 years, I know that life can throw us curveballs.

I admire those seeking positive change and personal growth in their lives. It is a privilege to provide support and guidance to people working to better themselves and to connect to others in such a meaningful way.
