Getting to know Melba Calderon

Hi there, I'm Melba! I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Maryland. I have over 14 years of clinical experience working with individuals, families, and couples. I believe that every individual is unique, with their own strengths and challenges. I take a compassionate and supportive approach to help my clients address and successfully work through whatever challenges they are facing. I feel very privileged to work with clients to help them create a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life for themselves. My approach The therapeutic approaches I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). My focus area is adult mental health, including mood disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety disorders. My focus I primarily work with adult women between the ages of 25 and 55. I have a passion for supporting women experiencing anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress. I believe this age group can be particularly affected by the challenges that life throws at them. My communication style I take a compassionate approach with clients and work with them to reach their full potential at their own pace. I want my clients to feel comfortable and supported so they can feel empowered to work toward their goals. I am patient and compassionate, and I'm here to help them achieve their full potential. My journey to mental healthcare I'm a great listener, and I believe that's a key quality of a good therapist. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking about anything they want or need to discuss. I always want to hear what's on their minds and help them develop solutions to their problems. I approach all clients with the same level of respect and care. I strive to build a strong therapeutic relationship and make my clients feel respected and seen.
