Getting to know Natalia Melancon
Hello, I'm Natalia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from New Mexico Highlands University. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, trauma, grief and loss, LGBTQIA+ issues, life transitions, women's issues, codependency, relational, and cultural concerns.
My approach
I believe clients are the experts in their own lives. My collaborative approach ensures they have a voice in how their treatment unfolds, feel empowered, heard, validated, and heal at their own pace. I use an eclectic mix of cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness.
My focus
I enjoy working with adults to help them address depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, LGBTQIA+ matters, and life transitions.
My communication style
I strive to create a warm, accepting, and trustworthy relationship with my clients. My goal is to build a therapeutic alliance where they feel accepted and respected for their individuality, recognize their right and capacity for self-determination, and are fully involved in the treatment process from beginning to end.
