About Meridith
Meridith Crocco is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting struggles, and issues like trauma, grief, addiction, and bipolar concerns. Parents reading on a phone will find clear, practical language and a focus on real-life solutions.
She creates a calm, accepting space where clients can talk through painful memories and current problems.
How Meridith works
Sessions focus on helping people notice what matters to them, learn new ways to manage strong emotions, and make small changes that add up. Meridith mixes practical exercises with supportive conversation so clients leave with tools they can use between sessions. Her approach draws from several methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, and emotionally-focused work.
These methods are woven together to match each person’s situation rather than following one rigid plan. Meridith has worked across a wide range of concerns such as attachment issues, adoption and foster care topics, body image, codependency, communication and blended family problems, and caregiver stress. She also addresses ADHD, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, and career questions.
Sessions are offered in English and held online by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. People start by using the platform’s matching process to connect and schedule a time that fits their needs.

Online support options
How these therapeutic approaches fit online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take action toward what matters. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and figuring out next steps during life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and focuses on building more supported ways of relating, which can help with intimacy, abandonment fears, and family dynamics. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, mood challenges, and coping strategies.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Meridith will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, values, and daily life. She blends techniques rather than sticking to one method, so sessions can shift as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues and longer check-ins, phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier while on the go, live chat supports shorter check-ins and quick problem-solving, and text messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between meetings.
