Getting to know Melisa P. Sheldon

Hello! I've had 35 years of experience working in social work in both clinical and non-clinical settings as a therapist, as well as many years in hospice care. I earned my Master's in Social Work (MSW) from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and hold a Certificate in Gerontology from the same institution. My clinical expertise in gerontology has been enhanced by working with families in the fields of addictions, grief work, life transition issues, sports psychology, chronic mental illness, and family and individual therapy with people aged 18 and older. I also hold certifications in Reiki 1 and Animal Reiki. As an Ironman finisher and avid marathon swimmer, I understand the importance of setting goals and not only reaching them myself but helping others achieve theirs as well!

In-network insurances

Melisa P. Sheldon, LCSW has 50+ in-network plans.

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.
