Melissa Duckworth, LPC
(814) 807-0861

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 4 years of experience working with children in school and alternative school settings, as well as families and adults. 

I began my education at Gannon University achieving a bachelor’s in psychology and completed my graduate degree at Edinboro University in 2019, where I focused on mental health counseling and school counseling. I have also completed basic training certification in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy and am working to become certified in TF-CBT (Trauma Focused- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy).  

I have worked with individuals in crisis, provided individual, group, and family therapy for children in partial hospitalization, provided mental health and intervention services for students in middle school and high school, and am currently working as an LPC with Parkside in Meadville.

I offer a safe and welcoming environment where clients can work on various coping techniques and learn distress tolerance skills.  I work to improve their emotional stability and coping capabilities through individual work and group work with a trauma-informed curriculum.

 I believe that fostering a trauma-informed environment through collaboration and consultations with teachers and other stake holders throughout the school is essential to my mission as a professional counselor. 

Our team of experienced therapists and compassionate support staff are here for you. 

We look forward to meeting you.
