Beyond loving to help people become better individuals I enjoy exploring the world and learning new cultures, caring for animals and being outdoors. I have over 6 years of experience working in the mental health field. I earned a Master’s in Arts in Counseling Psychology from Anna Maria College and a Master’s in Science with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Massachusetts Boston. I have experience working in different settings such as at home, mental health agencies, hospital and school settings.
I use a holistic approach in my treatment working with a diverse background with various mental health dispositions. Some of these areas I have experience in includes treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, cultural diversity, work stressors, life transitions and also help in redefining values and beliefs. Modalities I have implemented in my treatment approaches includes cognitive behavioral therapy, humanistic therapy, solution focused therapy, person centered therapy and expressive therapy. I also have pursued training in trauma focused therapy where I help individuals explore past traumatic events that shape them to who they are in the present moment and striving towards becoming better individuals in the present and future.
By creating an unconditional, supportive and trustworthy environment I am hopeful to helping individuals explore their full potentials by using their challenges and strengths to reach their goals and to pursue future endeavors. Looking forward to exploring this journey together.

I’ve participated in therapy before but I’ve always found it difficult to ‘shop’ around for a therapist that I can click with and open up to. Melissa helped me feel so comfortable from the moment my first session began! She is just like talking to a friend! I would highly recommend her as a therapist.

I would love to say, I really enjoyed to the fullest the therapy session with her.
I was hesitant at first for choosing better help but after she was selected as my therapist I was getting to understand the problems I was having and was overcoming it gradually. We click instantly because she understood my cultural background and she really knows made me feel comfortable about sharing my personal information. She was also very educated on the field and gave me very important tips which helped me through out this course. Lastly, I would highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking counselling and therapy. Thanks to her I'm in a better place now. :)

Melissa was extremely kind and listened to me keenly during all our sessions so far. Although its been a short time she has helped me look into myself and identify what improvements i need to make that will greatly impact my life.
She communicates very well and responds in a timely manner. Also, when i first joined betterhelp and was paired with my therapist, i desperately needed an immediate session and although her next available appointments were too far, she heard my cry for help and accommodated me immediately, for this I am truly grateful.
