Let's Connect (872) 704-1920
If you are dealing with a relationship concern, a health issue, or you are caregiving for someone with a health issue, we can help. Living with a challenging relationship or health condition can make you feel like you've tried everything and nothing is working. You may feel like you're the only person who has faced your specific struggle and aren't sure what to do. Your friends and family try to help, but their feedback seems biased, or they don't understand.
In our office, we provide direct feedback and engaging support to help you identify specific steps you can take to improve your daily life, cope with your health, or help you improve the quality of your relationships. Regardless of how stuck you feel or how difficult your situation is, we will develop a plan to help you effectively deal with your concerns.
To accommodate busy schedules, we offer a variety of appointment times. Visit my website (www.melissafreylcsw.com) to learn more. Call, email, or text me today to schedule an appointment. I also offer 15 min phone consultations to ensure a good fit and match, and strive to respond to all messages within 1-2 hours.

We work best with people who are either new to therapy or have previously been to a therapist but are looking for a therapist who is more direct and solution oriented than their previous therapist. While every appointment is unique, our clients usually report feeling better after their first appointment, as they are working towards developing a plan and steps to take to move forward.

We often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and/or mindfulness in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then discuss together what therapy style and intervention might be of the most help to you. We will describe the intervention we are thinking of using, and describe how we believe it will help.
