Women come to me to talk through some of the trickiest, most private parts of aging—divorce, disordered eating, menopause, shifts in sexuality or gender identity, and the quiet unraveling of once-unshakable friendships. You may be navigating health issues, caregiver roles or cultural pressure—frequently at the expense of your boundaries and well-being. You’re tired. I get it.
Together, we’ll unpack the weight of these responsibilities—balancing work, raising kids, mental load, supporting aging relatives—so we can work toward clarity, and create space for you to live with more intention—not just obligation.
I’m Melissa, and it’s lovely to connect with you, even in this brief virtual way. I’ll meet you with curiosity and care as we explore what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next. I’m EMDR-certified and experienced with trauma, creatives, therapists, and diverse relationships. I’d be honored to support you. .
