Lauren Mars Melchione
MS, LCMHC
OCD & Anxiety Disorder Specialist
Lauren has been flourishing as a Staff Therapist at A Little Counseling for the past three years and is a part of the facilities leadership team. She is a graduate of Long Island University’s CACREP certified program and graduated as a member of the professional honor society, Chi Sigma Iota. Lauren has done outstanding clinical work with individuals of all ages and has successfully helped many people with anxiety and OCD achieve their desired outcomes. She brings a mix of passion, knowledge, humor, dedication, patience, and understanding into her sessions.
Lauren is grateful for the opportunity to help clients at A Little OCD Treatment Center “feel the fear AND be successful.” She is excited to apply her training in Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) to help individuals gradually face their fears head-on and learn to accept uncertainty and discomfort. Through education and motivation, Lauren intends to help her clients get back to doing the things they love with anxiety taking a backseat.
In her free time, Lauren enjoys being outside in nature, spending time with family and her dog, and cozying up to a good book!
