Dr. Melinda D. Perry, LICSW

Picture
Dr. Melinda D. Perry, LCSW, is a seasoned mental health professional with over 18 years of clinical experience supporting individuals, couples, families, and groups through meaningful personal growth and healing. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Certified Sports Social Worker, and a skilled clinical evaluator specializing in Immigration Psychological Assessments.
Dr. Perry’s therapeutic approach blends compassion, empowerment, and evidence-based interventions. She is trained in Written Exposure Therapy (WET), a structured and highly effective approach for reducing trauma and post-traumatic stress symptoms. She works with clients facing depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationship difficulties, performance stress, and chronic health concerns. With a strong commitment to whole-person wellness, she also provides guidance on health and wellness, including support for clients managing diabetes and other lifestyle-related challenges.
In addition to psychotherapy, Dr. Perry offers career consulting, helping clients navigate professional development, workplace stress, leadership growth, and career transitions with clarity and confidence. She facilitates couples therapy and group therapy, fostering communication, emotional resilience, and deeper connection among partners and groups seeking stronger relational dynamics.
Outside of her clinical work, Dr. Perry is pursuing her Veterinary Social Work certification, expanding her ability to support the human–animal bond and the emotional needs of individuals and families connected to animal care systems. She enjoys life with her husband, Mr. Dexter Perry, and their beloved dog, Harper, who brings joy and warmth to their family.
Dr. Perry is committed to empowering clients to heal, transform, and thrive—offering a supportive, non-judgmental space where individuals can find insight, regain balance, and move toward purposeful, meaningful living.
