Getting to know Melissa Lopez

Hello & Welcome! I’m so very glad you are here. My name is Melissa Lopez. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 17 years of direct practice experience. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Marywood University and a Bachelor’s degree from Elizabethtown College. I specialize in trauma recovery, which can manifest in areas such as problem sexual behaviors, substance/alcohol abuse, depression/anxiety, social/work difficulties, perfectionism, self-harm, and self-esteem challenges. Therapeutic work may include processing trauma events and memories, exploring family of origin issues, relapse prevention, marital concerns, social anxieties, and depression. Seeking therapy can feel scary, but you’re making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I’ll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques to help you overcome what is holding you back. I look forward to working with you on your journey of healing and wellness!

What should a new client know about working with you?

I strive to provide skills/tools/strategies to take away and use between each session. You should feel empowered to take steps towards your own wellness and healing even when sessions are not held.

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.
