Hi there, I'm Melissa!

I work with adults and specialize in the areas of depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy in order to meet my clients where they are and help facilitate the process of change.

My focus

I work with adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. In addition, I have extensive experience working with individuals who have been impacted by the justice system. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live a healthy and fulfilling life and that sometimes we all need a little help to get there.

My approach

My approach to therapy depends on the needs of the client I am working with. I predominantly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps me to understand why you view the world in the way that you do. CBT helps me to identify areas you would like to change. I believe in meeting clients where they are.
