Hi there, I'm Melinda!
I work with adults navigating addiction and recovery, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. My approach is down-to-earth and collaborative: we pinpoint what gets in the way, untangle harsh self-talk, and build tools that fit your daily life. For clients who want it, I also offer thoughtful Christian faith integration.
My focus
I focus on adults working through substance use, compulsive habits, anxiety, or feeling stuck during life shifts. I often work with people carrying a harsh inner critic or performance pressure. Whether you need recovery accountability or ways to regain daily momentum, we work together to rebuild confidence without judgment.
My approach
We start by making sense of what’s actually driving your stress, then turn that understanding into practical steps. I blend CBT, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing with a focus on dropping shame and reclaiming personal agency. Rather than rigid plans, we build workable tools matched to how your mind actually works.
