Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been a licensed therapist since 2018, and I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work from the University of Central Florida in 2015, and my Bachelor's Degree in Human Services from the New York City College of Technology in 2012. Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, I moved to Florida in 2012.

My approach to therapy

My goal is to help clients feel more empowered to make the decisions that will lead them to feeling more satisfied with themselves and their lives.

I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy to process and overcome negative sensations related to client's pasts. More information on ART can be found on https://acceleratedresolutiontherapy.com/directory/listing/sylvie-melman-lcsw

I specialize in helping individuals struggling with substance use and addictive behaviors by providing a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore underlying issues and build healthier coping strategies. My approach integrates evidence-based practices such as CBT and motivational interviewing to support lasting recovery and personal growth.

I work with individuals experiencing depression by helping them identify unhelpful thought patterns, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with meaningful activities. My goal is to provide a compassionate, collaborative space where clients can regain hope and strengthen their sense of self.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to feel affirmed and validated for taking this powerful step towards better self-care. Clients can expect to feel more in tune with themselves and more optimistic after one session.
