Getting to know Melanie Wolfson

Hi, I'm Melanie Wolfson, a licensed clinical social worker with a Master's in Social Work from New York University and a Bachelor's from the University of Florida. With over a decade of experience, I help individuals navigate anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. My approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative-I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered to grow. Whether you're struggling with chronic worry, traumatic experiences, relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, I'll work with you to uncover what's holding you back and help you move toward lasting change. I specialize in treating: - Anxiety and stress-related disorders - Depression - Life transitions and adjustment issues - Relationship patterns and communication - Self-esteem and emotional regulation I use a blend of evidence-based techniques-including CBT, mindfulness, DBT skills, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy-tailored to your specific needs and goals. I offer virtual therapy for adults across Florida and currently have availability for new clients. Taking the first step can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. Let's work together to help you feel more grounded, connected, and in control of your life.
