Getting to know Melissa Gomez
Feeling constantly on edge, emotionally drained, or struggling to cope? Many clients I encounter feel stuck in survival mode-overwhelmed with anxiety, weighed down with depression, or impacted by trauma. Life stressors can feel all consuming and this can make everyday feel like an uphill battle.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing compassionate, trauma-informed therapy using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I also have a certification in CBT focused on Depression. Together, we focus on reducing anxiety, improving mood, and developing coping skills to help regain a sense of control and stability in your daily life.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Our first session will be an information gathering and assessment session. We discuss your concerns, goals, and answer any questions you may have. After our first session, we will come up with a plan to help you meet your goals and discuss an approach to doing so. I always say, therapy is a collaborative effort. You can expect me to listen empathetically, and gently challenge those thoughts and behaviors that are holding you back from thriving.

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.
