01About Melissa
Melissa Quigley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania who helps people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and addiction. She supports those facing relationship and family concerns, sleep and anger problems, ADHD and bipolar challenges, and people coping with major life changes. Her tone is warm and down-to-earth, and she aims to make the first steps less overwhelming.
Melissa draws on 12 years of clinical experience across outpatient programs, partial hospitalization, and independent practice.
Background and approach
She has worked in community behavioral health and school settings, and has experience supervising clinical teams. That range gives her practical insight into both short-term goals and longer-term patterns. In sessions she keeps things interactive and straightforward.
She listens first, then helps set goals that feel doable. Methods she uses include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic ideas. These tools are chosen to match what each person needs.
Melissa also brings experience from intensive outpatient and addiction programs, so she understands crisis management and de-escalation methods. She focuses on clear communication, respect, and compassion while tailoring plans to each person’s situation. The approach is collaborative: she helps people identify small steps, build coping skills, and track progress.
Her style aims to be encouraging without rushing the process. Melissa wants clients to feel supported as they make changes and work toward their goals.

How Melissa’s Methods Work Online
Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals around their values and needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and teaches practical skills to change patterns and reduce symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Melissa will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as progress is made or needs change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer, in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging make brief updates, homework check-ins, and short problem-solving exchanges easier to fit into a busy day. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to keep up with regular work toward goals.
