Getting to know Melanie Harriss

Whether it be anxiety, depression, unprocessed trauma, medical issues or illness, divorce, or chemical dependency—just to name a few—allow me to help you address the emotional challenges that may be causing a variety of symptoms such as frustration, sadness, decreased motivation, or anger. These feelings often reflect the underlying issues we are struggling with in our lives. Helping you discover and understand the root cause of your challenges is my goal, so you can live a more empowered and fulfilling life. I’ve worked in various clinical settings, from psychiatric hospitals to county jails. My approach is truly collaborative, utilizing EMDR, CBT, motivational interviewing, and more. Prior to becoming a therapist, I was a Registered Nurse for over 15 years, which gives me a deep understanding of the interplay between mental and physical health and how one affects the other. I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from California Southern University. Let’s work together to address the challenges in your life. Finding a therapist that fits your needs is essential; if I am not the right therapist for you, I will help you find one who is.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
