Getting to know Melissa Gottlieb

As a native New Yorker, I understand how overwhelming the pressure to succeed can be. I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families who want to see real changes. With a Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University, I take a kind, collaborative, supportive yet direct approach to therapy. My goal is to empower you with the tools and confidence to understand your past without judgment, take ownership of your present, and take positive steps toward your ideal future.

What should a new client know about working with you?

After graduating with a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania, I pursued a career in corporate communications where I worked with C-suite executives in the financial, legal services, B2B and nonprofit sectors. However, I realized I wanted to make a difference and help others improve their lives. I have a M.S.W. from Columbia University and combine a variety of evidence-based clinical approaches including Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Structural Family Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Narrative Therapy.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I work with individuals, couples, children and families, and my experience includes work in a community-based mental health clinic, on a forensic ACT team, as a geriatric care manager for high networth elderly individuals and their caregivers, counseling survivors of sexual assault, parents and children interfacing with the foster care and family court systems, and adults in the criminal justice system. Issues I can help you address include: ADHD, anxiety, substance abuse or technology addiction, trauma/abuse, family conflict, parenting, relationship challenges with friends/romantic partners/coworkers, divorce/separation, or navigating career and life-stage transitions.
