Diane Melendez
If you are looking to work on trauma, anxiety or/and depression and are open to let me treat you with a combination of scientific approaches and spiritual ones, you are a good fit to my practice. My background as a neuroscientist makes me a good fit for STEM students, but artistic students also enjoy my style, since I combine art, and spirituality with evidence based practices. I am Latina and grew up in Puerto Rico. Since I also transition to the Continental US, I love working with International students and enjoy learning from different cultures. I also like to help with acculturation issues. I have worked with many students in my practice and would love to work with you. Send me a text or email. See you soon!
