My name is Melissa Williams-Rodgers, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor based in the high desert of San Bernadino County and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with youth and adults and specialize in racial trauma, BIPOC/multicultural counseling, LGBTQIA+, women's issues, and childhood behavior issues and trauma. My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client I work with. I most frequently use person-centered and humanistic approaches as both modalities help me and the client build a shared understanding of their reality and allow us to work together to chart a path forward.
I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for youth and adults who may be dealing with the challenges of life transitions and social pressures. This often takes the form of anxiety, depression, confusion, and loneliness.
I work to help my clients navigate these transition periods and to build skills to allow them to feel better about themselves and develop a more positive outlook on life. My communication style is interactive, accommodating, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything.
