I am licensed in Washington with 5 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, & LBGTQ+ -related issues. I also have experience working with trauma and abuse. I am taking couples who desire to work on building communication with one another who have experienced trust breaking events. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Melissa, is wonderful to meet with. Attentive in listening and she makes it comfortable just like talking to a friend. Melissa is informative, sends articles with helpful tips and tricks on different ways busy moms can still make time for self care. She give helpful feedback on various ways to improve goals by making them attainable. Overall I’m excited for my Therapy sessions with Melissa.

Our first session I was very uncomfortable because I am just the type that doesn’t open up right away so she talked to me a little bit and got me to talk a little more. Very helpful.
