Hello and Welcome! I take a humanistic and behaviorist approach with my clients in therapy. I consider myself down-to-earth and open minded which I believe helps my clients during the therapy process and allows them to THRIVE again in their everyday life. I see toddlers (18+ months), children, teens, and adults in sessions as individuals, couples and families for a wide variety of issues. I hope you are able to find the help and support you are looking for! Thank you for looking at my profile.

Melissa believes that a person is more than what brings them into therapy. An individual has various interests, needs, intersecting identities, early experiences, and goals. Therefore, Melissa values the therapeutic relationship, establishing a relationship built in collaboration and trust, so that the client has a safe space to explore their narratives, their values, and wellness. Melissa mainly pulls from humanistic and cognitive behavioral approaches, offering a space of non judgment as one examines thoughts, behaviors, and feelings; however, Melissa aims to meet the client where they are at in their wellness journey.

Everyone needs a safe place to vent, a place where you can unpack the thoughts inside of your mind without judgement or criticism. Stress can become overwhelming, often times it can become paralyzing. Life stressors can cause illness, anxiety, depression and despair. When this occurs, it can be difficult to know where to find help and continue moving forward on your journey. It is often easier to ignore your own needs and focus on others' needs instead.

Therapy is a place for you to name areas of pain, a place to feel without judgment, and a place to reclaim what is yours. Shame is the source of so much of this pain and judgment, convincing you that you are broken. Shame is often so intertwined with sexuality because of the societal silence around the topic. Perhaps sex is painful, perhaps you are more aware of others desires than your own, perhaps you feel empty from running on fumes and enjoyment is the last thing on your mind. Whatever the reason, engaging your sexual health can help overall wellness, and ultimately be the way back into relationship with yourself!

Why spend your energy trying to cope with what is, when you could use it to create what you really want? I love working with people who are motivated to make significant life change, even if they don't know where or how to begin! I focus on teaching clients to separate thoughts from feelings, tap into their inner core of intuitive awareness, and use their own inner guidance system -- to move toward their goals, and away from old patterns and obstacles to growth. Along the way, we bring in interesting discussions, good books, homework, mindfulness exercises, and of course, some humor!

Throughout my professional journey, I have actively worked to unpack my own privilege in society and continuously strive to cultivate a practice that values and respects the unique experiences and identities of every individual I work with. With a focus on working with adults and adolescents, I firmly believe that building relationships with clients should be based on equality, mutual respect, and solidarity. I approach therapy with a genuine appreciation for people's stories, recognizing that these stories hold power and add meaning to the world we live in.
