About
Melanie Sholtis, Psy. D.,
Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. With 20 years of experience in psychotherapy and assessment, I've had the privilege of working with countless individuals and couples facing a wide range of life's challenges. My philosophy is simple yet profound: meaningful change happens one small step at a time. I'm passionate about being an active and supportive guide as you navigate your unique journey toward growth and healing. My approach is active, goal-focused, and always tailored to your individual needs. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or as a couple, we'll work collaboratively to identify your goals and develop a path forward that feels right for you. I believe in creating a warm, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered.

I specialize in comprehensive assessments for individuals ages 7 through the elderly, including Psychological, Psychoeducational, Neuropsychological, and Bariatric Referrals. My extensive experience, gained over 17 years in diverse settings like correctional centers, hospitals, juvenile detention centers, and schools, allows me to approach each assessment with a broad understanding of various life contexts and diagnoses. I've also collaborated closely with physicians, expanding my knowledge of treatment options to better serve my patients. This includes experience with assessment of dementia and similar illnesses in adults and the elderly. In addition to assessments, I provide treatment for adults and couples addressing concerns such as: Adjustment Issues, Grief, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Co-occurring ADHD, and Conjunctive Therapy for individuals with stable addiction recovery programs.

If you're at a point where you're committed to making a change and are looking for a guiding hand, I would genuinely look forward to working with you. Sometimes the hardest part is just starting. "One day or day one?" is a choice many of us face daily. Remember, with each small step, your goals will be well within reach. Are you ready to take that first step?
