LMFT, 10 years of experience
Hello, my name is Melisa, and I am an experienced therapist with a passion for helping individuals overcome mental health challenges and achieve their full potential. With nearly a decade of experience in the field of mental health, I have had the opportunity to work with diverse clients and gain expertise in various evidence-based therapies. As a therapist, I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where my clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors without fear of stigma. My approach to therapy is collaborative and tailored to the unique needs and goals of each individual. I specialize in cognitive-behavioral therapy and parent child therapy among other modalities. My ultimate goal as a therapist is to empower my clients to make meaningful changes in their lives, improve their relationships, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives, and I am committed to providing the highest quality of care to my clients. If you are seeking support in navigating life's challenges and improving your mental health and well-being, I would be honored to work with you.
During our first session, I will explore your reasons for therapy and will gather information about your symptoms of concern. We will build rapport and get to know one another. We will also create your treatment plan and discuss frequency and length of sessions.
My strengths as a therapist lie in my ability to work with women and young female adults. I understand the unique challenges that women face in today's society, from navigating relationships and family dynamics to dealing with societal pressures and expectations. I am passionate about empowering women to overcome these challenges and achieve their full potential. Through my work with young female adults, I have gained a deep understanding of the struggles that this population faces, from anxiety and depression to self-esteem and body image issues.
Teenagers- ages 11-19 any gender. Young female adults and mothers between the ages of 18-40.
One of the treatment methods used in my sessions is centered around the Cognitive behavioral model. Through this model the individual will learn to identify and recognize their thought and behavioral patterns that may be creating distress in their lives.
