Melissa is by far one of the best therapists I have encountered. She genuinely cares about my wellbeing, provides applicable tools and resources that I may need. She also follows up with messages throughout the week to ensure I am doing well !

Melissa has been helpful in my journey of life. She provides a space that feels safe for sharing. Melissa is a great supporter and offers exercises to help any situation. I cannot put into words how helpful Melissa has been to me.

Written on Aug 02, 2023 after therapy with Melissa for 5 months on issues concerning relationship issues, and trauma and abuse

I was extremely nervous about getting back into therapy after my experience at the behavioral hospital but Melissa was so very supportive and understanding and made me feel comfortable talking to her on my first video call. I’ve been more confident in talking about the things that have been bothering me and about my past experiences and bringing them up with her.
