Therapists in Dekalb County, GA

Melinda’s person-centered approach to trauma recovery honors the strength and resilience of survivors. She views her clients as experts of their experiences and believes in the body’s natural capacity to heal from trauma & stress-related conditions. She uses approaches including EMDR and clinical hypnosis to ensure her clients remain present and grounded throughout the therapeutic session. Traumatic memory is painlessly reprocessed and stored in the “done file.” Negative thoughts, behaviors, and emotions are eliminated since they are no longer necessary for survival. What remains is increased presence, self-compassion and growth.

You might be feeling stuck despite ongoing therapy, even after attempting to implement many strategies offered to you. To be quite honest, its never that simple. To get to a place of change requires a toolbox of skills that have been individualized and practiced with you. Without understanding the why and understanding how to break down a new strategy that is doable for you, we end up in a cycle of burnout thinking we are the reason for stagnation. If you are struggling with your emotions, struggling in your relationships or struggling with your habits, behavior coaching may be what you need.

Hello and welcome! I am excited to support you or your child through this stressful experience of being human at times. I believe healing begins by tuning in to ourselves and becoming more aware of our powerful and intuitive body systems. These systems let us know when something is wrong and if we feel safe in a challenging situation. By learning our body/brain connection, I have felt and observed the power it has in improving regulation and managing overwhelming emotions.

Your life seems to be going well, but deep inside you feel like you're just a great pretender. You’re doing your best to be a good parent, partner, daughter, co-worker, but no matter how hard you try, you end up feeling like you could be better. You’re struggling with feelings of doubt, grief, shame and irritability. When the day is over you deal with restless thoughts traveling a mile a minute, all to remind you of the things you have yet to get done. You can’t sleep and no matter how many times you try to organize your life, it just seems to always feel messy. One day you're a “go getter”, next day you struggle to get out of bed.

You have the power to write the next chapter of your story. It is never too late to start a new beginning. Today can be the day you turn the page and create the next chapter of your life. Life isn’t always easy and it has a way of testing us when we least expect it. It can make us feel like giving up or have thoughts that we are not good or strong enough. It takes courage and strength to ask for help or acknowledge that change needs to happen. Working through the most difficult challenges with support, can not only help you overcome them but also equip you with the necessary skills to handle future challenges more effectively.
