Hello, my name is Melody Evans when problems occur in our lives it can cause extreme stress and disruption. Maybe you have had trouble sleeping, or are too distracted to go to work. Perhaps you are just overwhelmed with everyone and everything. My work as a psychologist enables me to provide a comfortable place where; through therapeutic conversations, people can discover solutions to their problems.

I started my practice to create a space that is healing, safe, and accepting to help you become more resilient, empowered, and content. Life is often difficult, confusing, and disappointing, but you are much more than your bad days, bad months or bad years. I believe that healing comes from recognizing your true self, living authentically, and balancing acceptance and change. With consistency and commitment, it is possible to break out of patterns that no longer serve a purpose. I offer a judgment-free space where I aim to support you in living the life you want, with peace and conviction. Your goals for yourself are within reach.

I am experienced in working with individuals of all ages who are battling with childhood traumas (sexual/physical abuse), and who struggle with a variety of mental health issues such as Tourettes, ADHD/ADD, Fetal Alcohol Effect, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Anxiety Disorder and OCD. I have over a decade of experience working with families in crisis, parent/teen conflict, relationship/marriage difficulties, custody/access conflict, addictions, survivors of sexual/physical abuse, depression, and anger management issues.

My clients experience healing and growth through unconditional acceptance, empathy, and feeling heard and understood. You may have tried brief approaches to therapy and be searching for something more comprehensive, in-depth, and insight-oriented. We will build a genuine relationship; develop your tools for symptom management; and address your core wounds, and the patterns that resulted from them.

Feeling stuck? Worried that things won't get better? Have you been putting off more tasks and feeling further behind? Sometimes the stress from our relationships, responsibilities, work and family demands can feel overwhelming. In times of uncertainty, we may find it especially tricky to manage what we used to manage. Feeling demotivated, alone or hopeless can be common experiences after going through adversities or trauma. We may want company but find ourselves taking a step back or feeling anxious to talk with others. We want to feel better in order to do more, but uncertain with where to start.

If you are searching for meaning, purpose, and healing in your life, you don't have to journey alone. My approach is emotionally-focused & client-centered; I utilize mindfulness and body-integrated modalities to help you connect with your innate resources and inner knowing. Whether you are experiencing depression or anxiety, compulsive behaviours, a loud inner critic, feelings of overwhelm, or painful patterns in relationships, I will hold a light in the dark and see you through to the other side.

With almost 30 years of clinical experience, I approach each and every client with curiosity, warmth, empathy and respect I have an honest passion for people and can’t see myself doing any other thing other than helping others live meaningful lives I’m very sensitive to the fact that everyone is unique and it is of utmost Importance to tailor my work to each and everyone’s specific needs
