Welcome! My name is Mel and I am a LMFT and Registered Art Therapist who has been practicing for 7+ years. Are you looking for a creative approach to working with your current struggles? I specialize in using art and creativity in session with my clients.
I provide therapy online anywhere in California. I went to Loyola Marymount University and obtained my MA in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2018. I have 7 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, families, and groups. I am a queer therapist and kink friendly. I am also ENM/Polyamory friendly as well!
If you feel like we would be a good fit, please don't hesitate to reach out via phone call or email. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation, as I know that looking for the right therapist can be tricky and I am fully invested in you finding that right fit!

I love to bring creativity and art making into sessions! There is no art experience required for art therapy, and it can be so beneficial to anyone that wants to explore it! I also pull from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and approaching work through a Trauma Focused lens.
