Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Melissa Contreras. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Written on Mar 07, 2025 after therapy with Melissa for 2 weeks

So far she's been very professional and helpful. Everything is off to a great start!
