Lakeland, FL - Accepting clients in FL
I am caring, compassionate, and a very good listener. I am a Christian, wife of a Veteran, mother, and grandmother. My heritage is Caribbean-American. I grew up in South Florida with four sisters and two brothers. I was very independent at a very young age and willing to help out wherever.
I am a musician starting with piano in elementary school, then clarinet in middle school, and bass clarinet and bassoon in high school. I love music and find it beneficial in every aspect of life.
I decided to grow my family before pursuing a career. I decided to pursue a career in the mental health field because of a family member being diagnosed with a severe mental health disorder. I earned my AA in Psychology, then a dual degree in Psychology and Behavioral Science. After my undergrad, I went on to receive my master's in social work.
I have worked with Veterans, homeless, hospice, young adults, children, elders, couples and individuals with severe mental health diagnoses.
In my pursuit to help my family member, I became even more passionate about mental health and reducing the negative stigma attached to it. This passion I share with everyone I encounter.

Boca Raton, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Melissa has been a dedicated mental health professional since the early 2000s. Over the years, she has learned that creating a space where people feel safe, heard, and understood is the foundation of true healing. With her approachable, down-to-earth demeanor, Melissa helps clients feel at ease, knowing they are in a judgment-free zone from the moment they walk through her door.
Having a deep understanding of life’s challenges, including emotional and chronic pain, she recognizes how overwhelming it can be to simply function at times. While Melissa is compassionate and supportive, she is also honest and direct, providing authentic feedback to help clients uncover their personal truths. Her goal is to help you become the truest version of yourself, free from self-imposed limitations, and equipped with the skills to navigate life’s stressors with greater ease.
Melissa specializes in working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and the lasting impact of childhood trauma.

Expect to explore new perspectives, tools, and coping strategies to build resilience and improve daily functioning.
And don’t be surprised if she cracks a joke or two—therapy can be heavy, but Melissa believes humor can be a powerful tool in making the process more comfortable and approachable.
Melissa says, “There is nothing more beautiful or empowering than watching someone fully embrace themselves—strengths, weaknesses, and all—with compassion and clarity.”
She looks forward to walking alongside you on your journey, offering unwavering support and encouragement. Reach out today to schedule a session—she’s ready to be your biggest cheerleader.

Rockledge, FL - Accepting clients in FL
In therapy with me, there’s no judgment, no fluff, and no “one-size-fits-all” solutions. We’ll start where you are whether that’s putting out fires in your daily life or addressing deeper wounds that keep pulling you back. I combine Brainspotting, practical tools, and direct conversation to help you manage today’s struggles while healing the past. My focus areas include anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, and domestic violence. I also work with therapists, first responders, and others carrying the weight of the world.
My style is direct, compassionate, and grounded in the belief that healing is messy but possible. Together, we’ll create a space to explore your emotions, uncover patterns, and build strategies that work for you. It’s not about perfection it’s about progress and reclaiming your life on your terms.
