Hello, I’m Melissa! If you're navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I’m here to walk alongside you. In our sessions, you’ll feel heard & supported, knowing you don’t have to face your challenges alone. Together, we’ll discover your inner strength, explore new perspectives, & find your unique path forward. Even in tough moments, change is possible. I’ll help you cultivate awareness, enhance communication, build coping strategies, & strengthen resilience. My goal isn’t just to help you cope, but to empower you to truly thrive!
I’m passionate about helping teens, couples, & families navigate challenges like communication issues, relationship distress, anxiety & depression.

Together, we’ll unlock your potential for growth, healing, & stronger connections.
Sozo, meaning healing & restoration, invites you on a holistic journey of transformation. It’s not just about easing symptoms, but nurturing the mind, body, & spirit.
