Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why you’re struggling? Is anxiety taking over your daily life? You don’t have to navigate it alone. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Melanie D’Souza and I am a licensed mental health counselor with six years of experience helping adults work through depression, anxiety, trauma and addiction. I am also trained in EMDR, an evidenced-based approach that can help process and heal from past experiences that continue to affect the present.
I provide supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can speak openly and feel heard. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs.
In our first sessions, we’ll explore your background, current challenges, and goals so we can build a clear forward together. My experience across a range of settings- including work with individuals, couples, and families- allows me to bring a well-rounded perspective to our work.
