Hello! My name is Melissa Sanders and I am a determined Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 14 years of experience. I began my career working in community mental health in 2010 and have experience helping children and families grappling with defiant behaviors, drug use, hyperactivity, inattention, criminal activity, time management, relationships, maternal mental health, work-life balance, divorce, trauma, anxiety, and depression to name a few. I have dedicated the majority of my career to advocacy within the military community.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I utilize a variety of different treatment methods to include Psychoanalytic, Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral, Humanistic, Dialectical Behavioral, Integrative, and Mindfulness,

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I help my clients of all ages to improve their overall well-being and functioning to achieve their desired goals. My approach is client and family centered. I know that every client and situation is different so no one single approach is right for everyone.
