* Accepting New Clients / All Locations & Virtual - Over 26 years experience in Individual, Marriage & Relationship Counseling. Regardless of how difficult things may be, I can help. My list of clients include Celebrity, Professional, Corporate, Athletes and the like. Initially trained in the USN in Psychiatric Trauma, I have helped thousands of individuals & families. My Corporate Critical Incident experience allows me to quickly assess trauma/problems and develop solution-focused resolutions to the most complex emotional, psychological & relationship problems.

I ascribe to a humanistic and psychodynamic approach and philosophy of counseling with some cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) mixed in. I focus on client’s emotions, perspectives, and life experiences, rather than just treating symptoms. I believe incongruence, internalized conditions of worth, and unhealthy core beliefs contribute to emotional and psychological distress. Each client is different, what works for one will not work for all. I use a dynamically informed approach in order to create a treatment plan that is best suited to a client's unique needs and goals.

My name is Melody Nait Sidenas, I have a License in Professional Counseling. I utilize an eclectic blend of person-centered counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused brief therapy to respond directly to the individual needs of clients experiencing adjustment disorders, mood disorders, ADHD, and more.

My goal is to inspire growth and empower change so that you can reach your personal goals.

Life can throw so much at times that we often find ourselves feeling stuck, but there is hope for a better tomorrow beginning with the step you choose to take today. I believe that one of the bravest things you can do in life is take that first step toward healing, growth, and self-empowerment.

During the course of therapy, my focus is to learn about who you are and where you want to go in your life’s journey. My primary goal in that process is to create a supportive and a non-judgemental environment that can provide us the space to put successes into action and aid us in embodying them. Your goals can seem daunting at first, but together we will build a foundation that empowers you to not only achieve your goals, but also to strive for whatever comes next.

Disruptions in relationships regularly occur in life and the experience of feeling disconnected is not uncommon. Many of us have experienced children growing older and leaving home, job loss, retirement, frequent arguments with those closest to us, divorce, separation, and death of loved ones. Some of us have experienced life threatening events, serious illnesses and physical losses that result in a dramatic shift on how we fit into the world and in the lives of others. These events can result in a loss of satisfaction in life or at times a loss of hope in having a life worth living.

I have experience working with adolescents and adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I provide individual and family therapy, and I also enjoy running psychotherapy and skills classes. My clients can expect me to work to empower and support them by aiding them in better understanding themselves and their behavior, creating a safe space for them to process, work through, and heal trauma, enhancing knowledge and understanding of evidence-based tools for healthier coping, and allowing space for the exploration, identification, and application of solutions for current problems.

Do you find yourself wanting more from your daily life? Or are unhappy and you don't know why? Can't figure out why you don't find enjoyment in the things you used to? You sleep all the time and still wake up exhausted. Depression is real and it can be debilitating. You just want to feel normal but don't know what to do. There's no reason for you to feel this way or go through it alone. You want to be the you, you used to be. It's not too late and change is not impossible. You can be the you, you want to be.

Are you the strong friend who silently bears the weight of the world while yearning for a moment of peace amid the chaos of work and life? Carrying the weight of the world in silence is a heavy burden and even the strong need a sanctuary. Sometimes we need help learning strategies to manage it all.
