I value the uniqueness of those I work with, taking from a variety of therapy approaches that can be tailored to fit your needs. I also have training and experience in offering trauma informed care, as well as using both art therapy and mindfulness teachings.

“Melissa helped me work through some difficult stuff. With a straight forward way of looking at things, and talking through options and alternatives, she helped me come to terms with a decision and move forward. I was so relieved after that was behind me. I’m glad we are still working together because there are plenty of other areas of my life that we can work on together.”
