Great strength and drive can be found in difficult times. It is my goal to assist you in discovering this resource within yourself as a method of healing from trauma, anxiety, depression and loss. Reaching out for help can be a vulnerable process. You will be surprised how much shifts as soon as you take that first step. We will work together to establish more productive and healthier relationships with the events, circumstances and processes that you are coping with. We will explore this with a holistic approach that not only takes your thoughts and feelings into account but also integrates your whole self.
For over 25 years, Melissa has provided psychotherapy to those struggling with anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges and those seeking personal development. Her approach focuses on the whole individual not just circumstances. Melissa is a Certified Grief Counseling Specialist. Telehealth and video sessions available.
Each session is customized your individual needs at the moment. Sessions begin with identification of goals and exploration of a variety of approaches we will collaboratively explore to assist in meeting your goals. This includes verbal psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing,DBT, CBT, ACT, Grief Counseling, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Reiki Therapy.
