Welcome! I'm Melinna. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Los Angeles, California. I received my Master's Degree from USC and have been practicing for 10 years. I want to commend you for taking the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to their mental health issues. I focus on helping clients develop coping skills, assertive communication, boundaries with themselves and those around them, and gain the necessary tools that can help improve their quality of life. Therapy can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, history gathering, and discuss specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. During this time you'll also have the opportunity to ask me an questions you might have.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having 10 years experience has taught me to meet clients where they're at, be empathetic and understanding, and gain the skills to help my clients identify and face their challenges so we can work together to make progress.
