Hello and welcome — I'm pleased you've found your way here. I’m Melanie Rivera a BACP-registered Integrative therapist and Wellbeing Coach. Many people come to therapy unsure of what they need—just knowing something doesn’t feel right. That’s okay. I offer a compassionate space to reflect on what’s going on beneath the surface, to begin gently making sense of your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I work with adults (18+) who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or navigating life challenges, difficult relationships, low self-worth, trauma, mood changes and/or other issues.
As an integrative therapist, I work adaptively drawing from various pyschotherapy models including Humanistic, Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural Approaches, trauma-informed EMDR, Emotionally Focused, Mindfulness-based techniques.., allowing us to meet your needs. Online Telehealth sessions are also avilable Nationwide.
Choosing a therapist is a meaningful step in your healing journey, and it’s important that you feel confident in that choice. This is why I offer a free initial call—to answer any questions and help us explore what might support you best. Clients often describe my approach as warm, grounded, and helpful. Many like the convenience of online sessions too!
