Hello and welcome. I am Melissa Hanson and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist.

I also believe that our therapeutic system should be collaborative, working to achieve the needs and goals of the individuals and their family. I will work to help you meet your therapeutic goals through proven theoretical approaches best suited for you, based on your unique life experiences and goals.

When asked, "How are you?" Clients often respond, "I feel lost/empty," "I don't know who I am. What's wrong with me?" I hear confusion as they ask for help, but these feelings can change.

Learn how to resolve conflicts in a positive, and productive way. The change process is most likely to succeed if we identify and stay connected with your strengths and values. Let me partner with you to assist you in reaching your potential.

My main concern when working with clients is that they work through therapy their presenting problems while at the same time, they become aware of the inner strengths that enable them to experience psychological growth.

It is through therapy that they obtain the quality of life that they need and deserve but most of all they want to lead a happy life.
