Introduction

You’re feeling emotionally and physically overwhelmed… you are not alone. Whether it's work or school, finances, family responsibilities, major life changes or loss, it can start to feel like a heavy weight you are struggling to bear. My approach is rooted in compassion, with a deep respect for the unique needs and experiences of each individual. To address a wide spectrum of mental health concerns, I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies, including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Life coaching. Brief solution-focused therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Gottman Couples Method and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) I am committed to helping individuals, couples and families build healthier connections, foster effective communication, and create a nurturing environment for growth and healing, taking into account each unique couple or family unit. Please reach out to me at Melanie.Maddox.HCC@gmail.com or 805-902-3578 for more information or to schedule a no cost consultation. Telehealth services in California and in person services in Westlake Village are available and I am in network with Aetna and have sliding scale self-pay options.
