Hi there, I'm Melanie!

I've devoted my life to helping people become their best selves. Starting therapy can feel scary—fear of judgment, vulnerability, the unknown, change, and stigma are all common. Remember, you're not alone, and seeking help is a sign of strength and self-awareness.

My focus

I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating trauma, attachment challenges, autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety, grief, personality concerns, substance misuse, behavioral issues, life transitions, and personal growth. My focus is creating a safe space to explore thoughts and feelings while building coping strategies and resilience.

My approach

I'm a neurodiverse affirming therapist with a warm, non-judgmental, trauma-informed approach. I believe every person deserves a tailored path to healing. Depending on your needs, I may use CBT, TF-CBT, DBT, EMDR, Mindfulness, Christian Counseling, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, or Biofeedback.
