About
Melissa J. Kron
I want to start by welcoming you in taking the first step in your journey towards better mental health. It can be difficult and uncomfortable to seek out help. I am committed to creating a comfortable and safe space for you, as well as offering you hope that you can overcome whatever challenges you are facing in your life.
I will meet you where you are in your journey. And I will work with you to create a strong therapeutic relationship, which will become a foundation for your healing work. I will help you understand your strengths and support you in analyzing patterns in your life, while considering the broader context of your life story.
I work with teens, adults, couples, and families. I believe in the importance of healthy relationships in developing and maintaining emotional health. I enjoy helping couples and families move from patterns of disconnect and conflict into secure loving bonds.
Before shifting to therapy, I spent more than ten years in various human resources roles, supporting employees and managers through workplace difficulties. I was involved in coaching and training related to helping managers and employees grow and develop professionally.
On a personal note, I think it is important to share that I have had my own life struggles, and I have done and continue to do my own healing work (including, but not limited to therapy). This ongoing work allows me to bring the best version of myself to my work with others!
I enjoy camping, hiking, reading, rollerblading, singing, and spending time in nature.
It would be my privilege to accompany you on this journey!
