My ideal client is an adolescent or adult who feels overwhelmed by strong emotions that seem to take over their daily life. Anxiety, shame and sadness pay a a central role in their lives. Past experiences continue to impact their present-day relationships, self-image, and ability to feel safe or grounded. They may notice patterns of over giving, people-pleasing, or prioritizing others’ needs at the expense of their own well-being. hey are typically insightful, caring, and resilient, yet exhausted from carrying too much on their own.
With over 20 years of experience, Melissa works with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, and self-harm. Melissa’s therapeutic approach is grounded in compassion, safety, and respect for each client’s unique story. She strives to create a supportive space where clients feel understood while also being challenged.
Seeking therapy demonstrates you prioritize your mental health or your adolescent's mental health. Taking care of yourself benefits not only you but others in your life including family, friends or coworkers. Do the research and find a therapist who is the right for you. If you are interested in EMDR, reach as I am EMDR Certified.
