Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with seven years of experience providing therapy to a diverse group of people.
I strive to provide a warm and supportive space for you to learn and grow. I value the uniqueness of those I work with, taking from a variety of therapy approaches that can be tailored to fit your needs. I also have training and experience in offering trauma informed care, as well as using both art therapy and mindfulness teachings. My focus is working with adults who are struggling with anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and depression. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you!

Melissa is an incredible therapist. Having been in different forms of therapy for over 20 years, I can confidently say that Melissa is the rare professional who balances active listening with helpful reflections and actionable recommendations. She is extremely knowledgeable about the field of psychology and actively engages with new perspectives no matter what I bring to my sessions. She is truly compassionate and always follows up with additional exercises and resources. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

I just recently began working with Melissa and it has been a positive experience for me thus far. I am learning that she is a good listener and offers various tools to address the concerns and issues that I am dealing with it. It’s still early in our work together.

Melissa is kind and patient. Rather than telling me what to do/what to think/how to feel - she has allowed me to express myself, feel my feelings, and has aided me in processing and moving forward in situations. Melissa has been a great aide in my healing and I am very thankful!

Melissa helped me work through some difficult stuff. With a straight forward way of looking at things, and talking through options and alternatives, she helped me come to terms with a decision and move forward. I was so relieved after that was behind me. I’m glad we are still working together because there are plenty of other areas of my life that we can work on together.

Very nice person. I told her my issues and she explained things to me which calmed me and she sent me worksheets that I am using as tools and I feel much better.
