Getting to know Melanie Kaplan

I have embraced therapy/life coaching as a deep dive into what holds us back, what triggers us and ultimately what liberates us. I help clients figure out ways their lives can be improved, working with adolescents and adults in Mental Health Counseling and Life Coaching modalities. As a Board Certified Personal/Life Coach (BCC), I offer separate Life Coaching (in-person sessions in Long Island, NY area/virtual sessions) for private pay clients, to help create the life you desire while integrating my mental health counseling experience. My values-based coaching is grounded in professional training, ethical standards, and mental health insight into behavior, motivation and change. As a counselor, I am attuned to what lies beneath motivation, resistance, avoidance, fear, uncertainty, shame, or self sabotage- all of which the coaching process recognizes as barriers to change. I can detect subtle emotional cues of grief, trauma response, and people-pleasing tendencies that can interfere with the forward momentum life coaching can provide. My coaching approach is grounded in Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
