I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, family and relationship issues, or issues around their identity.
Hello, I'm Sarahanne. Here is a space where untangling the mess is welcome, growth is possible, and being human is enough. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or simply curious about who you are and what comes next, therapy offers a place to pause, reflect, and reconnect—with yourself and with what matters most. This isn’t about fixing you—because you’re not broken. It’s about understanding your story, gently exploring the patterns that no longer serve you, and making space for something new. You're not alone in this. Let’s start where you are.

Hi, I'm Dr. Melania. I do my best work when life gets messy. If you've tried therapy before and still feel misunderstood, you're probably in the right place. - I am a Senior Integrative Psychotherapist, Clinical Supervisor and founder of Biopsychoanalysis, an internationally accredited therapeutic modality that considers the biological, psychological, social, spiritual and ecological aspects of the human experience. Rather than applying the same model to everyone, I believe therapy should be tailored to the individual, because no two people are the same.

FAQ - About Couples Therapy
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
