Finding the Help You Deserve

Melissa considers it a privilege to work with clients as they discover their resources and resilience in the context of a collaborative therapeutic relationship. Therapy can sometimes be an intimidating notion, filled with questions about what to expect, however, Melissa seeks to provide a space of safety and understanding as she works with individuals, couples, and families toward their goals for growth and change. The goal is to work as holistically as possible, integrating the emotional, mental, spiritual, physiological, and neurological components of our beings to have a more congruent experience in relationship to ourselves and others. Melissa is systemic-minded, and attachment-focused, incorporating elements of Emotion-Focused Therapy, Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy, and Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, depending on the client's needs. In addition, Melissa is a trauma therapist trained in EMDR, and specializes in helping people heal from their trauma.
