Hello and Welcome! My name is Meleisha Dickson, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I am licensed in Oklahoma with 4 years of professional work experience in the state of Oklahoma. I have worked with populations from all walks of life and all ages from preschool to the senior population. I have a background working in a non-profit setting in community mental health which has allowed me to gain experience with various populations and issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, addiction, relationships, family issues, and LGBTQ+. I have also spent a great deal of time working with children and teens in school settings. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion and pride myself in being open-minded and a good listener. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. What you will get from me is someone willing to listen and work with you and help you in taking the steps to become the best version of you! Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Grateful for her. She understands, sympathises, unravels, listens, and holds a safe space for one to be able to sit and talk about it all.

I worked with 2 therapists before working with Meleisha. I wish I had her from the start!

I’ve only been talking to Meleisha for a few weeks now, but her compassion and understanding has very much been refreshing. I appreciate her willingness to share and relate to offer empathy as opposed to other therapists I’ve seen that are very clinical. I already look forward to my sessions and believe I was absolutely matched with the right person as my therapist for my specific needs.

Meleisha is able to take all the jumbled thoughts in my head and put them into a clear categories of areas to work on. She stays completely unbiased and professional, while still maintaining a comfortable environment!
