Melissa Mendez
Introduction
Do you struggle with being “enough”? Does past trauma, worry, sadness, and/or anger prevent you from living fully in the present? If you are here, chances are you answered yes to one or all of the above. Life can be challenging; traumas and fears come in all forms and one is not more important than the next. People that connect with me are diverse and so are their reasons for seeking therapy. Everything is connected; mind, body, and spirit. We must take care of all to be right with one. Our therapeutic relationship will help you understand your struggles and connect all aspects of your life to find resolution. I am a NYS licensed social worker with specialty certifications in trauma, anxiety, and in the very near future animal-assisted interventions! I work in private teletherapy where I connect with diverse adults to build honest and empathetic relationships through holistic approaches that create a safe environment and the opportunity to heal and grow. I believe in using our powers for good & discovering our greatness. All of the energy it takes to be mad, sad, angry, anxious, or scared, if given the proper tools, can be turned around and used to create a healthy, happy, and successful life! I am here to provide you with a safe space to heal; with an authentic, affirming, and strategic experience.
