Chloe Mellinger

Chloe Mellinger

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely safe, supported, and accepted as they are. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, and I strive to create a space where clients don’t feel pressure to “have it all together” before starting therapy.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, stress, life transitions, identity exploration, and relationship challenges. I also have a special interest in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, neurodivergent clients, and those who may have spent much of their lives feeling misunderstood or emotionally overwhelmed.

My background in higher-acuity mental health settings has strengthened my ability to support clients through difficult emotions with compassion, steadiness, and empathy. I take a person-centered and trauma-informed approach, tailoring therapy to each client’s unique needs and experiences.

I know starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you’ve struggled to find spaces where you feel fully understood. My goal is to help clients feel comfortable showing up authentically, building insight, and creating meaningful change at a pace that feels manageable and sustainable.

Brianna Wagner

Brianna Wagner

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


My background has been shaped by walking alongside people through some of life’s most difficult and vulnerable experiences. I began working in hospice care, where I learned the importance of presence, compassion, and creating space for grief and meaning at the end of life. From there, I moved into intensive case management and addiction counseling in a methadone clinic, supporting individuals navigating substance use, trauma, and significant life challenges. Over time, my work has focused more deeply on individuals living with complex trauma, dissociation, personality disorders, severe mental illness, and experiences of domestic violence. These experiences have taught me how important it is to move gently, build trust at a pace that feels safe, and truly meet people where they are. I bring a steady, nonjudgmental presence into the therapy room, with the understanding that healing often begins in feeling seen, understood, and not alone.
