A note from Merilen
I am a licensed mental health therapist with more than 10 years of experience providing psychotherapy to adults facing a wide variety of mental health concerns or issues, including substance use disorders, anxiety disorders, complex trauma, relationship issues, and stage of life transitions. Genuineness, respect, and empathy are the essential components of my therapeutic style. In our work together, we will collaborate to come up with creative solutions or new ideas to approach the barriers you’re facing by utilizing your strengths, to make lasting changes for a more fulfilling life.
