Accepting new clients! Hi, I’m Melissa- a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience helping clients navigate the messy, beautiful work of growth. I specialize in supporting neurodivergent women, especially those with ADHD, who are tired of masking and ready to embrace their strengths. No matter where they’re starting from, the folks I work with are all trying to build lives that feel more aligned, more empowered, and more true to who they really are.
Like many of my clients, I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by expectations, to second-guess your instincts, and to crave a space where you don’t have to explain your brain. Therapy with me is that space. I blend humor, empathy, and practical strategies to help you reconnect with your voice, your values, and your true self.
Whether you're navigating a life transition, wrestling with anxiety or depression, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply—I’m here to walk alongside you. My work is rooted in the belief that healing doesn’t come from fixing what’s “wrong,” but from understanding what’s real. Please visit my website to schedule your FREE consultation.

I help clients with ADHD (especially women), anxiety, depression, life transitions, burnout, and identity development. A typical treatment plan involves building insight into your patterns, developing practical strategies that work for your brain, and strengthening your sense of self. You can expect to feel more grounded, more confident, and more connected to your values and goals.

I pull from a bunch of therapeutic approaches- CBT, ACT, DBT, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and person-centered therapy- all within a trauma-informed, strengths based, and neurodivergent-affirming framework. But more than any technique, it's about creating a space where you can actually exhale and embrace your true self.
