Melissa Torres
Licensed Therapist, MSW, LCSW
About
Providing therapy runs in my family. My mom is a therapist, and I followed her path because of the passion for therapy I developed during my own mental health journey. I have real compassion for people who experience OCD. I've experienced my own anxieties, fears, and intrusive thoughts. I understand how anxiety can be a manipulative emotion. I know the value of what therapy can provide. I also know how hard it can be to be vulnerable with someone. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe sharing your thoughts without judgment.
