Meet the Team

  • Stephanie Melo, LMHC-D, NCC, CASAC-2

    Licensed Mental Health Counselor

    I’m Stephanie Melo, the Owner and Founder of Mind Unwind Mental Health Counseling PLLC. I earned my Master’s degree from LIU Post in 2019 & have dedicated my career to supporting individuals on their journey toward healing and personal growth.

    I am a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC), a Certified Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC), and hold the LMHC-D, an advanced credential in New York State. My professional experience includes work in outpatient rehabilitation and group practice settings.

    I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationships, codependency, substance & alcohol use, & challenges around boundaries.

    I believe that therapy is most effective when it’s collaborative, compassionate & tailored to your unique experiences. My role is to meet you where you are, help you understand patterns that may be holding you back, & support you as you build insight, confidence & healthier ways of relating to yourself & others.

  • Rhonda Kelly, LMHC

    Licensed Mental Health Counselor

    I am a licensed therapist in New York with 8 years of professional experience supporting individuals and families through life’s challenges. I specialize in helping clients navigate relationship concerns, family conflict, intimacy-related issues, and personal growth from a compassionate, faith-based perspective.

    I believe each person is the expert of their own story and has God-given strengths that can support healing, resilience, and meaningful change. Seeking support takes courage, and taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and balanced life is something to be proud of. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, empowered, and encouraged throughout your journey - emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
