Melissa Frey
  • Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) (LCSW)

If you’re feeling anxious, stuck in the same arguments, or carrying the ache of a breakup or life change, you’re not alone. Therapy can be a calmer place to breathe, sort things out, and begin again.

I love working with individuals, couples, and families—including LGBTQ+ couples and interfaith partners—who want to communicate with more care and strengthen connection. Whether you’re seeking dating coaching, parenting support, preparing for marriage, or healing after separation or divorce, we’ll turn stuck patterns into opportunities for clarity and choice.

I’m Melissa Frey, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience. My style is warm, practical, and collaborative. For anxiety and overwhelm, I lean on CBT and ACT to focus on what you can shift and practice small, steady changes. For relationships and family conflict, I draw from the Gottman Method, couples therapy, collaborative therapy, and solution-focused work to build skills and repair.

I welcome people of all identities and offer sessions in English. If this resonates, reach out for a first conversation. You don’t need perfect words—just a willingness to start; I’m here to walk with you.
