Kristen Melnyk, MD
Introduction
Dr. Melnyk is a board certified psychiatrist and fully trained psychoanalyst with over 20 years of experience working with individual adults. She strives to provides a safe space where you can consider your struggles in life, gain a new perspective, and bring that perspective into your lived experience with others outside the therapy relationship. Psychoanalytic therapy can alleviate emotional suffering, improve your self awareness and ability to regulate emotions, enhance your capacity to form and maintain close relationships, strengthen decision making capacity and a sense of agency in your life, increase work fulfillment, and help grieve past losses, among other benefits. Psychiatric medication is beneficial when there is a personal or family history of emotional disorders. Medication treatment, when indicated, often enhances the therapeutic process.
