Hi there, I'm Dr. Melanie!

I provide individual therapy to adults through a warm, collaborative approach rooted in evidence-based care. I draw from cognitive-behavioral and trauma-informed frameworks to support clients navigating serious mental illness, mood disruptions, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and personality dynamics.

My focus

I specialize in working with adults navigating life transitions, mood disorders, trauma, psychosis and psychotic spectrum disorders, and personality concerns. My clinical focus includes anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance use, self-esteem and interpersonal difficulties, grief, and stress.

My approach

I provide therapy through a warm, collaborative, nonjudgmental lens, grounded in the belief that meaningful change occurs within a safe and trusting relationship. I draw primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-informed care to help you recognize unhelpful patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and foster resilience.
