I am a Licenced Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist Supervisor with advanced training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy. I have over 20 years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples, and families dealing with a range of emotional, developmental, and situational issues.

My name is Dr. Melissa Arnott. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in several states, a Licensed Addictions Counselor, and a Nationally Certified Counselor with over 18 years of experience. I am ready to help you! I view counseling as a collaborative process that helps people explore, clarify, and identify their needs. I can help you make changes in cognitions and behaviors that will result in tbetter life satisfaction and self-acceptance. I operate from an Existential/Person-Centered philosophy that emphasizes meaning in one’s life, responsibility, and the pursuit to be “that self which one truly is”.

Do you ever feel the need to do things differently, to be less anxious and afraid, but find yourself worried about repeating the same painful things? Maybe you live in a body that is depressed, anxious, traumatized, addicted or ill. I can help you grow a peaceful and strong relationship with yourself so you can take on the most difficult challenges and enjoy life more. Let's do the kindest and most powerful thing possible, which is to help you become a person you want to spend the rest of your life with. 

Now accepting new clients in Pennsylvania! Finding a therapist can be a difficult task. At the Moorestown Therapy Collective we are here to make that task a little easier.

Sandplay Therapy is an effective tool for children and, too, it is an effective tool for adolescents and adults. Often, finding the words to express ones' feelings is a challenge. Together the client and the therapist review the creative process to help understand the feelings and experience. The picture created in the sand tray is a way for expressing ones’ internal feelings. Trauma whether it happens to a child, adolescent or an adult can contribute to feeling disorganized and insecure. For a child, adolescent or an adult feeling disorganized is scary. Sandplay Therapy will enhance self- regulation evident in one' behavior.

At Cycle Breakers, we understand that raising a child or teen is hard these days. Kids are facing enormous challenges and can easily struggle with a variety of emotional, behavioral, or social problems. Parents worry about their children's well-being and want the best for them. It's painful to feel like you are watching them struggle and don't know what to do to help them. Sometimes, parents feel like they are working hard to do better than their own parents, yet feel confused about what that actually looks like. Sometimes, parents feel surprised about what gets triggered from their own histories or childhoods and powerless to cope.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of therapy experience, I work with clients to find ways through the struggles they are experiencing to reach a place of solace where they feel able to manage the pressures of life.

Hi! I am the owner of Blue Dragonfly Counseling LLC and specialize in working with children aged 5-12, families, and couples. I work to help children with ADHD, anxiety, depression, and family changes. I utilize creative methods such as art and play to help children feel safe and build a positive therapeutic alliance. With couples and families I strive to create a safe space where everyone feels heard. I can help work through communication issues, negative patterns and cycles, family and couple roles, and attachment.

At Kesselman Clinical Associates, we are creating a community where you and your family can find understanding and support. We have clinicians who specialize in an array of areas, from anxiety, depression, and personality disorders to parenting and family issues, addiction, trauma, ADD/ADHD, ASD, and impulse control disorders. We provide individual treatment for children, teens, and adults, as well as group, couples, and family therapy, and we offer in-person or telehealth sessions.

Are you struggling to find peace? Do you feel destined for more? I believe that each of us is born with a life purpose and when we are not in alignment with that energy we can feel stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, uncertain, and even depressed. Together, we will explore the past, examine the present, and manifest a future that you’ve always desired. A few simple shifts in your awareness is often all that is needed to change your perception and heal the parts of your life that you are presently struggling with. I will help you obtain clarity, find peace and balance, and discover or awaken parts of yourself that have yet to be explored.

Therapy is a space to talk about your deepest hurts and fears. To do that, you need to feel like you can trust the person you’re talking to. I have years of experience sitting with people grieving losses and going through big transitions. I am not afraid of grief, or anger. I also work with people who struggle with intimacy and vulnerability. Sometimes our troubles come from inside and sometimes they are a result of the things that happen to us. Together, we will spend time with both, giving voice and care to parts of the self that have been overlooked or overwhelmed.

Life is sometimes overwhelmingly heavy. The seemingly random moments of increased heart rate and shortness of breath. The feeling of drowning (and sometimes floating) that fogs your mind. The inability to make a clear decision - or to just get through things in a rush because you can’t think clearly anyway. The having to backtrack because “Wait..what just happened?” The lack of appetite and sleepless nights. The increased appetite and the deepest sleep after the tears. How much would you treasure having a clear mind again?

I believe the most powerful tool we can offer others is our ability to authentically, genuinely and completely listen. I have been privileged to work with many children, teens and adults and bear witness to their stories. It has been the most profound gift and I am grateful to have been trusted with the opportunity to hear them. My work as a clinician is grounded in listening. In establishing a safe, supportive and nurturing co-created environment. It is rooted in helping people find their voice and trust their own ability to change their lives. The power of being present and fully in the moment can transform lives.

Therapy is a partnership of trust; a safe place to give voice, transform experience and practice new ways of being. What is dark and daunting to do alone becomes possible with guidance and presence. Positive self-care and higher self-trust are key to feeling calmer and energized to make decisions and act in alignment with our authentic self. I support clients to gain insight into self-defeating thoughts and patterns, and learn new tools to cope with hardship with renewed confidence and balance. Clients with intense feelings, burnout and a harsh inner critic learn to relate to themselves and others with more compassion and ease.
