“Gillian was very welcoming and knew the right questions to ask during our first session to gain a better understanding of who I was and what I needed help with. She took the pressure off it being my first session, and she is a great listener. Her feedback showed that she was paying attention to what my concerns were and how she thought was best for us to address them.”

Getting to know Gillian Melendez Harris
I am Gillian, a natural-born empath. Do you struggle with the push-through mentality? I want the individuals I work with to feel heard, understood, and to know they can be 100 percent themselves with zero judgment. I understand that finding the right therapist can be difficult. My approach is Person-Centered, which means I wholeheartedly believe in a person's capacity for growth. I specialize in working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, and addiction. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness-Based Therapy to help navigate complex and uncomfortable emotions.
I hold a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Florida Gulf Coast University. Seeking therapy is an act of prioritizing yourself. It takes courage to be vulnerable. It can be difficult to reach a place of peace and find joy in the simplest things when you feel like you're in a tunnel. I am here to support you through that journey.
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
