Hello! It is my pleasure to begin this therapeutic journey with you. I am licensed in the State of New York as a Mental Health Clinician and I am also a Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor. I believe that each individual is unique and an expert on themselves. I utilize a client centered approach to therapy as well as tailoring therapy and corresponding techniques based on a client’s unique personality, desires, and goals for treatment. I have found that utilizing multiple therapeutic approaches allows for individuality within treatment. I typically utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT); Motivational Interviewing (MI); Solution Focused Therapy, and Existential therapy to be particularly helpful in working with clients. I have been drawn to the field of psychology and human behavior from an early age and have pursued this field with great passion. I believe that the therapeutic process is effective in providing self-insight, wisdom and knowledge. It is my understanding that all behavior is purposeful and allows an individual to obtain personal needs and desires. Sometimes, these behaviors may be maladaptive and cause an individual distress. Through the therapeutic process we explore these and discover ways in which an individual can live a rewarding, meaningful life. Therapy also provides a platform for processing difficult emotions and experiences in an effective and productive way. I look forward to beginning this journey with you. I look forward to hearing from you soon! Melanie Gerber, LMHC; CASAC
