Our Team
Melissa Myers, LPC
Clinical Intake Specialist & Teen, Adult & Family Therapist
Licensed in Maryland, In-Person
Hi, I'm Melissa Myers, a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience working with teens and young adults, though my passion truly extends to supporting individuals through all stages of life.
I specialize in working with ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood instability, trauma, family and social conflict, and family-of-origin challenges. I also love supporting clients through life transitions, whether that's a career change, a divorce, a move, or simply a season of life that feels uncertain or overwhelming. One of the chapters of my career I hold closest to my heart is the time I spent serving military families across the globe. During that time, I had the privilege of helping launch an all-girls teen program for military youth overseas, an experience that deepened my commitment to creating safe, empowering spaces where people can truly grow.
Approach
Throughout my career, I've worked across a wide range of settings within the mental health system, including residential treatment programs for teens with sexual behavior problems, as well as intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs focused on mood and anxiety disorders. My clinical training includes Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused CBT, approaches I draw from to provide evidence-based, personalized care for a broad spectrum of emotional and behavioral challenges.
At the heart of my work is a deep belief in the power of collaboration. I see therapy as a team effort, one where we work together to help you manage current stressors, shift patterns that may no longer be serving you, and move toward becoming the healthiest, most authentic version of yourself. I also draw from an existential perspective, which I find opens meaningful conversations about purpose, identity, and what truly matters to you.
My greatest goal is for every person who walks through my door to feel safe, seen, and genuinely supported.
