It can be challenging reaching out to a therapist for yourself, let alone your child or family.
Welcome! I am the owner and provider for Melissa Morehouse LICSW LLC, where I strive to provide strength based support. I have 13 years mental health experience working with children, adolescents, families as well as adults. When working with children and adolescents, I believe in supporting the whole family; providing caregiver support, psycho-education, parent and family sessions (when needed). I believe in meeting the person where they are, based on everyone's unique needs.

For family discipline concerns I offer children and the adults both structure and understanding so that they learn to make workable choices and take on positions of willing responsibility.
Most of us want to be in connection. We want to be known and acknowledged for our strengths and contributions and to be safely understood for our vulnerabilities. How can this happen? Supportive work in therapy brings that knowing awareness into play. We build trust; we listen more. Mutual respect replaces resentments, anger, and the defeat of resignation. There emerges readiness to experience comfort, ease in interactions, and confidence to handle life's situations with increased skill. Intimacy, vibrancy, and laughter naturally find a place again in our experience of each other and in the ups and downs of life.

I enjoy working with families, children, adolescents and adults, particularly those impacted by stress, anxiety, ADHD and mood disorders.
In my experience I have found that the therapeutic relationship is the most important element of a successful therapeutic experience. I use a client centered, non-judgemental approach to meet my clients where they are at and help them get to where they want to be. Our world has become increasingly stressful and as a result people are dealing with high levels of stress, anxiety and depression. I believe people are resilient and we try to work through these things on our own to the best of our ability. Therapy can offer a place of support, help and reassurance as the face the challenges of day to day life.

Whether you're navigating parenting challenges or simply seeking support for your child.
Hi my name is Yanna Noboa, I am a bilingual child play therapist and owner and founder of The Healing Nest Play Therapy Center LLC.

If you are a parent feeling overwhelmed by the challenges of understanding your child’s needs, uncertain which skills to use to help them thrive and in need of support navigating parenthood.

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.- Charles Swindoll Having worked in this field for nearly 30 years, my experience helps me to understand my clients and to draw upon practical ideas for ways to manage the situation at hand. It's all in the way you look at it, what you focus on, and doing what you can to control the situation. Knowing the past is helpful to understand the present, but it's not always helpful for making changes. I will work with you to identify what you would like to see happen, and how to get as close to that result as possible.
