Melissa Carr, LPC, CAADC
About Me
Over the past ten years, my passion has been working with individuals who strive to understand the "why" behind their life patterns and a desire to stop dysfunctional behavioral loops. Most of my clients have experienced PTSD, dissociation, and relational stressors. The experience of accompanying an individual on their path to healing and building a better mind-body-spirit connection is nothing short of remarkable and humbling.
Education & Experience
I graduated with a Master's degree in Professional Counseling from Rosemont College in 2013. This education provided me with a comprehensive understanding of psychology, treatment modalities, and the skills necessary to teach and empower others to take control in their lives and increase distress tolerance skills.
Professional & Volunteer Affiliations
In addition to being an Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor ( CAADC). I am also an approved SARPH, PNAP and Pennsylvania Medical Board evaluator.
