Melissa Shi is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Wisconsin who has been practicing since 2019. She has a B.S. in Psychology from UW-Madison and an M.A. in Marriage and Family Therapy from Syracuse University. Melissa knows how uncomfortable it can be to start therapy or ask for help. She believes this discomfort can turn into growth and helps her clients get through the hard stuff by being authentic, warm, humorous (when appropriate). Melissa also works hard to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and empathetic space. She sees the best in her clients and helps them see their own strengths, accomplishments, growth, and find hope.
Melissa also enjoys bringing clients' interests into the room by incorporating art and writing into session. Seeking therapy and asking for help can be hard and feel vulnerable or uncomfortable. This discomfort also allows for growth and therapy can be an empowering healing process.
Melissa finds that therapy is most successful when there is a strong foundation of rapport and trust. This is where she starts with her clients. Melissa will meet you where you are and collaboratively get you to where you would rather be. Whether your goals are to improve boundaries, communication, and relationships or to increase resilience, insight.
