I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been in the Social Services field for over 17 years. I have had the pleasure of working with various populations and clients of various backgrounds. I truly enjoy the growth that takes place through the therapeutic process. It takes a lot of courage to take this step and I applaud you ahead of time.

Melody has been my counselor for the past 2 years. She has helped me uncover a lot of things about myself that are helping me heal from childhood trauma. Melody listens, and she is a realist, which really helps me open up to her on a deeper level. She is relatable and a very good counselor, and I will continue to see her. I highly recommend Melody for your counseling needs. She is amazing!
