LCSW, 8 years of experience
Greetings, I am Melissa. I know what it's like to feel you have no one who hears you when you speak. I know what it's like to feel you have no one to trust to confide in who is a good listener and not judgemental. I've been there, I know it's hard. I am here to listen. I am here to confide in with a non judgemental attitude. I would love to have the opportunity to help you find yourself and become the best version of yourself. All I ask is for you to be open to positive change and brave enough to take the first step and reaching out. I know sometimes it's hard to seek and ask for help but you can do it! I am experienced in using CBT and DBT therapy techniques to help you address your struggles with anxiety and depression. Looking forward to walking with you as you start your journey to better and stronger health!
In our first session we will be gathering and confirming basic information and then discussing goals and improvement you wish to work towards based on your present needs.
I am experienced in helping others with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and relationships.
I would love to help adults 18 years and older identify their barriers to strong physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health, and develop healthy coping skills to address these issues.
I have extensive experience in CBT to help clients identify triggers to their anxiety and depression, educate them on cognitive distortions and positive behavior change.
Emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationships are addressed using this therapeutic method.
