Getting to know Melissa Sandino

Hello! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a master's degree from Albizu University. I like to think I have a warm and genuine personality, which allows me to approach therapy with empathy and openness, fostering an environment of safety, trust, and non-judgment. With education and expertise in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and Parenting, I have been thankful enough to successfully work with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds and a wide range of concerns: extensive trauma, anxiety, depression, parenting difficulties, behavioral difficulties, and self-esteem struggles. If you find that these traits about me feel comforting and validating, I look forward to meeting you soon!

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.
