Specializing in Empowering Women, Sexual Health,
Genital Herpes, and Self-Esteem
Life just doesn't seem to be cooperating, but together we can do something about it.
You’ve been feeling down. You aren’t sleeping well. You’re staying up late scrolling trying to find answers or trying to distract yourself. You wonder why things are going so wrong and if there’s anything you can do to fix it. You worry that something’s happened that you won’t be able to solve this time, that you are broken.
My name is Melissa. I work with individuals who are struggling with concerns related to sexual health, like a genital herpes diagnosis. I help women and men overcome shame, strengthen their self-esteem, deepen their self-understanding, and build more meaningful relationships with others.
Sexual health and sexuality are intimately related to our natural longing to feel connected and to have close relationships with others. It’s deeply connected to how we feel about ourselves, our self-esteem.
If you are feeling down and preoccupied and want to find a sense of hope again, I would love to help. Contact me for a free 15-minute phone consultation to learn more about how therapy with a plan and the right therapist can help you find the courage to move forward.
Here's who I work with.
I work with women in NYC around relationships, discouragement, depression, anxiety, recovering bulimia, self-esteem, and sexuality and sexual health.
I help individuals who are having difficulty coping with a herpes diagnosis discover how to get their confidence back and gain the courage to pursue connection and meaningful relationships again.
I am passionate about working with women and men who have experienced shame associated with their sexual experiences, sexuality, or sexual health.
