We are incredibly grateful for Dr. Melissa’s support and guidance with our son. Her presence, compassion, and ability to help not only him but also us as a family have made a meaningful difference in this process. We deeply appreShow moreciate the way she listens, understands, and walks alongside us during this journey.
Melissa is so wonderful! She’s warm and caring! Extremely sympathetic and knowledgeable.
Are you watching your child struggle with overwhelming worry that keeps them from enjoying life? Does your teenager seem lost in saddness, withdrawing from family and friends? Are behavioral challenges turning your home into battleground, leaving you feeling helpless and exhausted?
I see you. I understand the sleepless nights spent worrying, the countless searches for answers, and the fear that you're somehow failing your child. You're not alone in this journey, and more importantly--there is hope.
Finding Peace through Whole Person Care
I'm Melissa Neill, and I've dedicated 28 years to walking alongside families just like yours. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at Lewis Family Psychiatry in Wellington, Florida, I specialize in helping children and teens find relief from worry, saddness, problems concentrating, and behavioral challenges that feel impossible to navigate.
But here's what makes my approach different: I don't just treat symptoms--I see your whole child. When worry keeps your daughter up at night, we explore not just medications, but also nutrition, sleep patterns, and coping strategies. When your son's saddness makes getting out of bed feel impossible, we consider therapy, lifestyle changes, supplements, and yes, sometimes medication--but always a part of a comprehensive plan tailored specifically for him.
A Global Perspective on Healing
My journey began in South Africa, continued through England, and brought me here to serve families in Florida. This international experience has taught me that healing happens differently for every child, and cultural understanding plays a vital role in creating genuine connection and trust.
I believe in meeting you exactly where you are--whether you're terrified of medication, frustrated with previous treatments, or simply don't know where to start. There's no judgment here, only compassion and a commitment to finding what works for your unique family.
Your Child's Potential is Still There
That bright, joyful child you remember? They're still there, waiting to emerge beneath the weight of their struggles. Together, we'll create a safe space where healing can begin--where your child feels heard, understood, and empowered to reclaim their life.
Mental health isn't just about managing conditions; it's about nurturing resilience, fostering connection, and helping your family rediscover balance and hope.
If you're ready to take the next step toward relief, I'm here to walk this path with you.

She really listens to you
She is patient and understanding and easy to talk to. I can also say she relates to quite a few aspects of my life, which makes it easier for me to open up to her.
I have been on a long road with GAD and Dr Bennett has been an absolute blessing. I don’t know where I would be without her guidance through all of this. Making the decision to take medication can be scary for so many. Having the right team to guide you through the process makes all the difference in the world. Thank you so much for giving me my life back!

She has been able to identify problems and issues that I was experiencing and came up with wonderful solutions and strategies to help me cope and deal effectively better to with them!! I wish I did this twenty years ago, my behavior with others especially my family has never been better. My stress, anxiety and depression has gotten manageable over the time.

Dr B is absolutely fantastic! Very knowledgable in her field. I have GAD and she has been wonderful in guiding me with the right medication to help me live my best life. As a person with anxiety I have doubted everything that professionals have told me yet she has made me trust her and given me the right amount of tough love to get to exactly where I need to be. I highly recommend her to help you on your journey. We need more professionals like her that actually take the time to get to know their patients and are there for them every step of the way. I don’t know where I would be without her.
