About Melinda
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Colorado with 15 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, severe mental illnesses, healthy sexuality, grief and loss, life transitions, as well as, career fatigue. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is warm, interactive, and client centered. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client centered, holistic, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I strive to meet you where they are in your journey.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
