Melissa Lombardi
I am here to create a supportive, safe space where you can explore what you're experiencing at your own pace. Therapy looks different for each person, and each session is unique. I am here to validate, actively listen and build your trust so we can work towards meaningful growth, healing and the goals you have for yourself. Clinical Approaches: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Narrative Therapy
First session
First sessions are anxiety provoking, so my job is to make sure you feel comfortable in sharing why you reached out for therapy. We will talk about what you have been feeling and what has brought you to therapy.
Strengths
I have worked in foster care/adoption, oncology, maternity and schools providing a supportive place for clients to express their feelings. I have worked with children, families and individuals over the years. By validating feelings and active listening, I am able to build rapport with my clients, so they feel safe enough to work towards their goals together.
Ideal clients
Clients who are ready to work together and process through what they have been struggling with in life.
Treatment methods
Supportive
I create a safe and supportive environment where my clients can explore their current struggles and challenges. I use various therapeutic approaches to meet each client's unique and specific needs. Together we will build on your strengths, coping skills and self-advocacy.
