Hi there, I'm Melanie!
I am a therapist working with adults for over 15 years. I earned my Masters Degree from New York University and spent many years in a clinic in the city. After I moved to rural CA, I worked for 5 years with adults with severe mental health symptoms before transitioning to my own practice for a better work/life balance.
My focus
Are you still holding on to traumatic experiences from your childhood, or a traumatic birth? Are they in the way of how you imagine you’d feel as an adult, as a parent, as a romantic partner? Even smaller stresses, grief, disappointments linger and get in the way. And I would love to show you how to manage all of this differently.
My approach
I believe that you already have all of the tools to grow and heal! I am here to help you better understand your thoughts and feelings and teach you new skills to manage them. We work together to identify your strengths and draw them out. Clients can expect to feel heard, validated, and empowered with tools to practice until our next appointment.
