My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s individual needs. I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy, supportive therapy, behavioral activation, mindfulness-based strategies, and trauma-informed care. Together, we identify unhelpful patterns, build effective coping skills, strengthen self-confidence, and develop practical steps toward the client’s goals. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and useful. My goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling heard, understood, and equipped with strategies they can apply in their daily lives.

With over a decade of broad clinical experience, I provide compassionate, client-centered therapy to individuals navigating life transitions, emotional challenges, and complex medical concerns.

My professional background includes work in hospital settings, home health, schools, outpatient therapy, and community-based care, allowing me to support clients and families across all stages of life with a well-rounded and practical approach. With this broad array of experience I have found myself working with young children as little as 4 and the oldest being 92. I specialize in working with older adults and geriatric populations, while also supporting individuals and families experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, caregiver stress, postpartum adjustment, life transitions, chronic illness, new medical diagnoses, and long-term planning concerns.I have extensive experience working collaboratively with families to strengthen communication, improve coping, navigate care-giving responsibilities, and provide emotional support during difficult seasons of life. I also provide therapy for postpartum depression or postpartum anxiety as well as couples counseling.

Hi, I’m Angela. I am a Board-Certified Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping people navigate life’s challenges, discover their strengths, and see themselves in a new light. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, I provide a supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace. I have worked with individuals of all ages—from children to adults—and have extensive experience supporting adults with cognitive challenges. My approach is always individualized and adaptable, using modified strategies when needed to ensure therapy is practical, meaningful, and effective for you. Life can feel overwhelming when emotions seem impossible to manage. In our sessions, you set the pace. We’ll start by identifying what matters most to you and create goals that feel realistic and empowering. I draw from evidence-based methods such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and emotion-regulation skills training. In our sessions together, I will meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can identify and overcome any barriers that you feel are holding you back. I also use Narrative Therapy to help you re-author your story—one that highlights your resilience, strengths, and growth. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, difficulty managing emotions, or navigating a challenging life transition, I’m here to support you. Together, we’ll explore practical tools and strategies to help you build resilience, find balance, and create a more fulfilling life. You don’t have to do this alone—we can take these steps forward together.

Hi, I’m Melissa. I’m a mindfulness advocate who believes in meeting people where they are, especially when life feels complex or overwhelming. I’m dedicated to creating a safe and compassionate space where we can collaborate on meaningful goals and deepen your connection with yourself. I specialize in working with trauma, relationships, and life transitions—including the profound moments of birth and death. Life can bring both beauty and challenges, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming to carry it all alone. Therapy offers a place to bring your whole self: your hopes, fears, emotions, and stories, so together we can explore what matters most to you and set meaningful goals. I believe we all hold the answers within us, even if life’s struggles make them hard to hear. My role is to walk alongside you with empathy and trust, helping you reconnect with your inner wisdom and uncover a deeper sense of self. Whether you are navigating a specific challenge or seeking greater clarity and growth, you deserve support that honors your unique journey.
