Melissa O'Dell
Hi I'm Melissa! Are you looking for guidance during a difficult time? Need assistance working through relationship issues? Want to find effective ways to manage anxiety and depression? I'm here to help! Working together we can find ways to get you back on the right path and living your best life. I love watching people realize the strength they have to push forward and cope with all of life's ups and downs. I treat each client as a unique individual who is the expert of their life. Working together we come up with goals that address the areas you need assistance in and design the treatment that is most relevant to you. I am well versed in CBT, DBT and ACT modalities and work with each client to identify what speaks to them and their needs. Reaching out was the first step in your journey. I can't wait to be part of your healing process!
I have worked with criminal justice involved individuals for over 20 years and do not focus on the past, but building a brighter future.
First session
You can expect the initial session to include a review of your assessments, intake documents and possible additional assessment tools to best determine your needs. We will discuss your relevant background, family history, prior mental health treatment and what brought you to seek therapy.
Strengths
My biggest strengths are my ability to meet the individual where they are at and motivate them to make the best decisions. I have worked with criminal justice involved individuals for over 20 years and do not focus on the past, but building a brighter future.
Ideal clients
I love working with individuals who don't realize their full potential. It is my passion to work with someone struggling with a low sense of self worth and help them push through this and live the life they were meant to live. Anyone who is hesitant or unsure about how therapy can help I create a space where they feel comfortable sharing and exploring their goals and hopes for the future.
