Melissa Sydor
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
As a therapist, I work hard to create a safe, non-judgmental place for people to honestly examine their problems and develop the skills and behaviors that help them move forward with their lives.
I combine my years of experience in a variety of clinical settings with effective tools like Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Interpersonal Therapy to help them take the sensible steps that lead to positive change.
I am committed to principles of social justice and equality. This orientation helps me work effectively with clients from all walks of life, including professionals, parents, couples, teenagers, LGBT community members, with depression, anxiety, and poverty. To learn more, give me a call. I look forward to talking with you.
