Hi there, I'm Melissa!
As a constantly busy person not tending to yourself because of a tradition of putting yourself last, it can be challenging to pause or ask for help. Something, finally, brought you to a halt, and you are starting to give yourself permission to welcome support.
My focus
You are invited to co-create with me a sense of safety for your voice to be fully honored. I engage individuals in cultivating or reconnecting with their agency to thrive, especially following burnout. Cultural and historical context are a priority, such that a more nuanced story helps in creating a new consciousness to move beyond surviving.
My approach
I offer my enthusiasm to partner in your journey of identifying strengths, growing from challenges, and building on them. A multicultural background and experience working with clients of diverse narratives and identities help me to remain open to your point of view. I have an extensive history working within the arts community.
