Enhance Your Overall Wellness With Mental Health Counseling

Take care of your well-being with counseling services for mental health and addictions with Melanie Barbarisi, MA, LMHC, LADC-1 at
Harbor and Oaks Counseling, LLC.

My focus is to help you find balance and a clear sense of self through a holistic, person-centered approach. Often with direct but gentle honesty, I aim to create a caring, safe, and respectful environment.

Together we will create a plan to assist in changing behaviors and patterns that may no longer serve you. This process can lead to the development of self-acceptance and healthy boundaries.

Learn a Bit About Melanie Barbarisi MA, LMHC, LADC-1

I have about 2 decades of experience as a licensed mental health counselor and addictions counselor.

I love to learn about different religions, spiritual beliefs, and cultures. My natural sense of wonder and curiosity is a great asset in my work. By being open and accepting of my clients beliefs and ideas I can create a space that is free of judgement. My clients can feel safe to explore their thoughts and emotions and make the changes necessary to meet their goals.

I meet my clients where they are in their lives, being sure to let the client guide the way. With my direct but gentle, and sometimes humorous approach, my clients often find their lives changing for the better.

Currently, I help adults with growth and behavioral changes. My main focus is working with different mental health diagnoses and addiction issues. Specifically, those who have loved ones in active addiction or any phase of recovery. I also work with individuals who are, or have been in, an abusive or narcissistic relationship. Additionally, I offer support and treatment for women who suffer from Breast Implant Illness (BII).

Using a mind-body, spiritual approach to counseling, I will assist you to recognize your strengths and help you gain the resilience to move forward and reach your goals.
