HELLO! Welcome to your new beginning. My motto for therapy is evolve or repeat. Before you begin your journey, let me tell you a little about myself. I consider myself to be a warm and genuine person. While I promise to hold your hand through your therapy journey, I also promise you that I will speak the truth to you and address where you may be repeating old habits. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them become successful in relationships, work, and a better understanding of self.
With 20+ years spent working with clients I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness techniques, treatment of intense trauma, a Certified First Responder Counselor. I am also Yin Yoga Certified. I encourage all of my clients to view my professional Facebook page MelissaMManenteLPC.

I am a Certified First Responder Counselor (CFRC) working with police, firefighters, EMT's, and other first responders. I look forward to developing a relationship with and helping you become your best self.
