I work with you to explore the barriers keeping you stuck, deepening your self-awareness so that you may live your authentic life. My focus includes disparities in mental health services, depression, substance abuse, trauma, psychogenic seizures, empowerment and self-advocacy, and the impact of racial trauma.

For context I’m a younger individual that is working with Dr. Melendez. I have so much love for her in my heart. Obviously it’s up to me to do the self work but she has progressed me so far. She really takes time to understand, validate me, my experiences, and how I feel. She also challenges me in a lot of instances. Overall she’s a great person and she’s great at what she does.
