Welcome. I'm Melissa Dionne, and my specialty is treating children, teens, couples, and families. While every client is unique, the challenges couples and families face are often similar: from parenting a toddler or a teen (all separate challenges), the day-to-day stressors, school issues, depression, anxiety, infidelity, or contemplating divorce to name just a few. My approach is holistic while utilizing research-based techniques. Remember the decision to enter therapy shows strength. It empowers you to make choices, to find peace and happiness in your life.

Hey there, I’m Allison and I am excited to get to know you! I love traveling, curling up with a good thriller book, and am always down for a dance party (anytime, anywhere, & to literally anything!). Life can suck and can absolutely be too much to handle on our own. As humans, we all experience traumatic events (or 5,000) that can change our outlook on life and that we sometimes struggle to understand. When we attempt to process these events alone we often find ourselves feeling lost and stuck.

My work with children, teens, adults, and families usually begins when someone has reached their breaking point. What’s worked in the past is no longer effective and there is a feeling of being stuck and/or hopelessness. Whether you are dealing with self harming behaviors, suicidal ideation, trauma, or difficulties regulating emotions, thoughts and behaviors I can support you. Through my practice I help clients develop self-awareness and behavioral strategies that can be practiced and infused into daily life. Let's work together on taking your next step.

Sometimes life highlights some hard truths, and you realize that you need help to sort it all out. You may find yourself becoming ineffective, hitting the same brick walls over and over again, not having the relationships that you need and desire or simply lost in navigating the next step. You want a place to sit down, process some feelings, learn some new skills, get to know yourself and clear out what is stopping you from living the life you want.

Teen Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
