Getting to know Dr. Melita Stancil

Greetings! I am Dr. Melita T. Stancil, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I am passionate about providing practical and effective treatment that serves the individual as a whole person. My treatment for individuals and families is fueled by results from my own experience, scientific evidence and incorporating the patient’s values. In essence, each patient is cared for as a human being with unique needs. I received a Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical-Community Psychology at the University of South Carolina. The capstone of my clinical training was at Mount Sinai St. Luke's and Roosevelt Hospitals, an intensive American Psychological Association accredited child and adolescent pre-doctoral Internship program (at that time, a Columbia affiliate). I have additional specialized training as a post-doctoral fellow caring for serious mental illness with adults at Northwell Health Zucker Hillside Hospital. I integrate a variety of approaches and the use of therapeutic modalities such as, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Social Cognition Intelligence Training, Motivational Interviewing, Mentalization, Prolonged Exposure, and Positive Parenting among others. Furthermore, I developed a treatment modality, Atilem Relational Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on helping to alleviate duress in individuals experiencing complex interpersonal challenges. I also incorporate real-world experiences (social, cultural, and environmental influences) to promote confidence and personal empowerment. In addition to my private clinical work in New York City and national speaking engagements, I am an author of four peer-reviewed scientific articles, a grant-funded community coalition project, and developed intervention for inpatient organizational development.
