Getting to know Melissa Weldon
Welcome!
Congratulations on taking the courageous first step of seeking out a therapist. It is an act of bravery and courage to explore what is impacting you or your child. Contacting a therapist can feel intimidating and overwhelming, but I hope you will take a minute (and maybe a few deep breaths) to email or call and see how I can help.
I specialize in treating children, teens, and young adults. I have been working in the mental health field for over 7 years, including more than 4 years in a residential treatment setting supporting children struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, ASD, PTSD, and other diagnoses. I utilize TF-CBT, mindfulness, and other modalities in my practice. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland School of Social Work.
Thank you for considering me to be a part of your journey!
What should a new client know about working with you?
A main focus of my approach is to create a safe and welcoming environment where each individual feels comfortable being themselves as we maneuver the therapeutic process together.

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.

Melissa is amazing. As a new adoptee of mental health care I felt that I was being heard and was given the tools to address my issues.

"I had a fantastic experience during our recent session. Right from the beginning, the session had a natural and easy flow, which made it comfortable for me to open up. What really stood out was the genuine interest in understanding my concerns. It felt like she was actively listening and genuinely invested in helping me.
Her knowledge and expertise about my condition were evident throughout our session. She explained complex concepts in a way that was easy to grasp, which made me feel more confident about managing my condition. Additionally, I appreciated the homework assignments she provided. They were tailored to my needs and were a valuable resource in between our sessions.
