About My Clients

Do you often feel stuck, anxious, overwhelmed? Do you struggle to stay motivated or constantly wrestle with feelings of guilt? Are you struggling to adjust to changes in your career, relationship, your home life or your sense of identity? When you are struggling with these feelings it can be overwhelming and you may not know where to start. It is time to start thinking about finding a therapist, another overwhelming process.

My Background and Approach

I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy. Trust and respect are essential for growth. You are the expert of your life, and you already hold the potential for forward motion within yourself. I would love to help you in that journey. Please visit my website www.melissaderosalicsw.com to schedule a consult. You can also email or call me to schedule.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

When we begin to look for a therapist, we acknowledge that part of ourselves that is ready for change and strong enough to ask for help. Therapy can feel like a risky investment. Here is the promise I can make: I want to help you. I will be as thorough, inclusive, and insightful as you would like. I can help you to build skills and learn techniques to help make your day to day struggles more manageable. I have a decade of experiencing working at the top hospitals in the Boston area.
