Hi there, I'm Melanie!

As a therapist, my main objective is to create a therapeutic space that promotes growth. No matter your reason for seeking therapy - be it a recent transition, difficulty coping with past negative experiences, or an increase in unpleasant symptoms - it is always important to invest in your personal growth and wellness.

My focus

I specialize in working with children, preteens (ages 8-12), adolescents/teens, and individuals dealing with anxiety, career counseling, coping skills, cultural stress, depression, grief, job stress, life coaching, life transitions, school issues, self-esteem, sports performance, stress, and women's issues.

My approach

Since each individual is unique, I utilize various therapeutic methods to fit your needs. My approach draws from modalities such as Client-Centered Therapy, Coaching, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Person-Centered, Play Therapy, Solution Focused, Strength-Based, and Trauma Focused techniques.
