Therapists in Reno, NV

Hello! I’m Melody, your guide through the maze of mental health, armed with DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) Level II Accreditation and a flair for making therapy less of a chore and more of a journey. My expertise? BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder). My passion? Turning the tangles of the mind into a clearer path forward. And when I'm not decoding the human psyche, I'm creating tales of murder and comedy where mannequins aren't just window dressing—they're the main suspects. My downtime involves strategizing world domination with my Russian Blue cats and family and friend hangouts.

Welcome! So often the first step towards healing is the hardest and I want to celebrate your willingness to take a deeper look. Whether you are struggling with emotional pain or need help making changes in your life, therapy can be the path to greater insight and understanding. My approach to therapy is to empower and support you in achieving your life worth living goals, whatever they may be. Whether you are looking for safety and support in healing past trauma or needing help with managing emotions that feel confusing and out of control, I can offer a place to explore and recover without judgment.

Healing Minds is a compassionate, dedicated group of therapists who share a deep commitment for helping individuals and families rebuild and improve their lives. At our core, we're people. People with families and emotions ~ with life experiences-some wonderful and some painful. It's our human-ness that attracted all of us at Healing Minds into this field. We're committed to helping others identify and address the root causes of suffering, because we're serious about helping others make long-lasting improvements and achieve their life goals. The work we do involves mental, emotional, relational and behavioral health.

I work with clients to explore the nuances of what it means to be human and live a deeply fulfilling life. Many of my clients are innovative survivors of oppression, abuse, and harm, while others are coping with stress, anxiety, or climate grief and building resilience in the face of uncertainty. I honor my clients' creative strategies for coping with our challenging world and emphasize their many strengths during therapy. I work with clients to explore their identities, process their experiences and emotions, and carve out pockets of joy in their lives.

My passion is healing and am blessed to share this with others.

Healthy feels good, no one should have to suffer, you have the power to heal within yourself, lets unlock it together.

I practice psychology as a profession, and focus much of my hobbies around self-improvement. I made a vow to myself early in my career that I would create the life that made therapy most effective for others, and would maintain accountability for changes to be made in my life to be of service to others. When it comes to addressing psychological suffering we must consider the paradox of wanting to start, knowing where to put our attention, and ultimately, to begin the journey of change. Transformational psychotherapy is the discovery and exploration of mental clarity, self-restraint, connection, autonomy, and authenticity.

Asking for help can be one of the most difficult things to do when you are struggling. As a therapist, I recognize the strength it takes to be vulnerable and explore the parts of yourself that you may perceive as the scariest. My hope is that my clients are willing to allow me to sit with them as they explore their thoughts, emotions and behaviors and work towards creating a healthier, happier life.

Life can bring many challenges that often leave us feeling alone, helpless and confused. Sometimes our emotions can get the best of us, and we can become our own worst critics.

Whether you are going through life changes, experience low self-esteem, depression or anxiety, I am here to meet you exactly where you are and guide you towards healing.

All the way from the desert planes of Arizona, I have made my home in the city of Reno for the past 10 years. I fell in love with the four season aesthetic as I acquired both my Bachelor's and Master's of Social Work at the University of Nevada, Reno. Outside of treatment, I have two other jobs including teaching part time at my alma mater and volunteering at my local Teamsters union supporting labor workers. Outside of work, if I am not fighting off dragons with my friends in D&D, I am either going through old cookbooks refining my chef skills or sipping tea with my family in the backyard gazing at the stars.
