Iuri T. Melo, LCSW

"Iuri has helped my son through several difficult struggles. Iuri is always positive and has taught my son how to infuse even the most discouraging and stressful situations with confidence to overcome those challenges and hope for better days ahead! I can’t think of a more important life skill for anyone to have-and I truly appreciate Iuri’s help in teaching him how to be hopeful and mindful, regardless of any circumstance."

"Iuri is an amazing counselor, especially for teens. He helps them feel at ease and meets them where they are without judgement, then helps encourage them as they strive to move forward. The added adventure therapy that he has as an option is also a great method for counseling and building confidence that he uses. I would highly recommend him as a counselor."

"There are not enough good things to say about my experience with Iuri. He made me feel comfortable, validated and seen. I always left feeling hopeful, positive and motivated. Most important to me, I always felt as though I could trust Iuri & was never judged. Hands down one of the most positive experiences of my life! I’d recommend Iuri to anyone, time & time again!"

"I can't say enough good about Iuri as a therapist. My family's experience over two years with his counseling services was so beneficial. The best thing about Iuri is that he cares, he's humble and he's smart. If you've experienced many therapists you may agree that finding a therapist who has all three qualities is rare. Iuri worked with my pre-teen and my twenty-something children and then later on with me through a divorce. I still can hear him say, "be congruent." He really gets kids and he helped our family immensely."

"Working with Iuri has been one of the most positive and helpful experiences of my life. His unique way of mixing therapy and climbing creates a fun and engaging atmosphere that allowed me to improve both my mind and my body. Iuri always knew how to best handle any problem I brought to him, paying attention to every detail I told him and always coming up with creative and dynamic solutions. Above all else, Iuri is a great friend who I feel blessed to have been able to spend my time with."
