Introduction

Hi, my name is Melissa, and I would love the opportunity to hear your story and walk alongside you on your journey. As a therapist, I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where you can process, gain new perspectives, and feel empowered to take on life's challenges. With experience working in various mental health settings and with a diverse range of clients, I understand that many factors—like trauma, upbringing, culture, and relationships—shape who you are today. However, these influences don't have to define your future. Together, we'll identify unhelpful patterns and focus on your goals, moving past the things that weigh you down. I use an integrative, relational approach, tailoring treatment to each person’s unique needs. My expertise includes helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, self-esteem issues, codependency, chronic illness, and relationship challenges, among other concerns. Contact me for a free consultation today—I’d love to help you take that next step forward.
