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.

I use a variety of methods that are personally tailored approach for each client and situation. As a therapist, I am empathetic, supportive , and straightforward. I consider myself an open minded therapist who uses learned skills, experience, and sense of humor to offer logical and realistic approach to counseling. In addition to therapy, I offer evaluations and documentation for Emotional Support Animals (ESA) when clinically appropriate. ESA letters can help individuals with mental health challenges access the support they need from their animal companions. ESA letters are issued after a thorough assessment to ensure they meet ethical and legal standards. If you’re considering an ESA, feel free to discuss this during your session. I also understand that mental health symptoms can impact school, testing, or work performance. I provide support and documentation for accommodations (such as extended test time, modified environments, or school/workplace supports) to help clients demonstrate their true ability, when clinically appropriate and not after a single session.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s unique needs.

Unity is the foundation of my beliefs and core values. I believe that communities help us become resilient in the moments when we feel most alone.
