About

Feelings of despair & insecurity can alter our perception of daily living. If you are seeking comfort & hope from within, I am available to assist you in achieving happiness & satisfaction. As a therapist, I enjoy helping others gain insight & awareness through spiritual counseling. I also provide a safe environment to explore your feelings, beliefs, & behaviors.

My counseling approach is Adlerian Therapy, which focuses on understanding the unique & inner beliefs to increase self-awareness; as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which works to change irrational thoug
I specialize in working with trauma & grief. I also work with individuals suffering from depression, grief, anger, anxiety and provide parental consultation; I also volunteer for Trauma Support Services of North Texas. My credentials include being a National Certified Counselor and was previously a School Counselor and Teacher with over 10 years experience.
Additional experience include being trained in EMDR and Brainspotting Phase 1 & 2 to assist clients who have experienced trauma, & an Adult Mental Health First Aid Trainer. It is my pleasure to work with you and encourage you that you don't have to star your day with broken pieces of yesterday-everyday is a fresh start-each day is a new beginning...

Melodi Parker's Groups

Experience L.I.F.E. (Living In Full Effect)

*SUMMER GROUP** Beauty comes in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes. Minority youth are pre-judged as being socially unacceptable, uneducated, and inadequate. In order for these group members to become successful, it is very important that the strategies taught be implemented to fulfill everyone members needs. This group would concentrate on positive self-identity, self-awareness/esteem, appropriate behavior and academic success. The members will learn that they are somebody; they count and make a difference in society - regardless of their color, race or gender. Another main objective for the group is to develop positive self-awareness/esteem within their culture and society.
