Melissa has been helpful and has allowed me to go at my own pace. This is my first time speaking to a therapist so I appreciate that she respects my slow pace and yet is always timely with her response when I do need her.

Melissa is wonderful. I've seen clear improvement in myself on the things we've worked on together, and she has had a real positive impact on my life. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone who is down to earth and willing to listen and work on problems with you!
