Melissa supports individuals navigating relationship and interpersonal challenges, including those impacted by trauma, domestic violence, narcissistic dynamics, or a partner's addiction. She explores attachment and family of origin patterns that contribute to present day difficulties, and assists people through major life transitions such as becoming a parent, separation, and blended family adjustment. Melissa also works with neurodivergent clients, including those with ADHD and autism, recognising that these challenges can present differently for those with neurodevelopmental differences.
Melissa has worked in the Western Australian health industry for over 25 years, first as a registered nurse and now as a registered psychologist and gestalt psychotherapist. She has worked in hospitals, community and not-for-profit sectors, universities, and corporate business.
Melissa is trained in EMDR, CBT, DBT, Gottman Couples & Gestalt Psychotherapy.
Melissa understands that reaching out to a therapist can often be stressful and she is very gentle and supportive in her approach. Melissa is respectful and empathetic, and she offers a warm and caring environment. Melissa can provide face to face appointments, telephone or online sessions for your convenience.
