Sweet and has a lot of care! She helped me so much! Absolute best counselor that I have ever had. I will miss her because I am changing practices. I had trouble there with a med nurse and discovered that they truly don't care. They are so lucky to have Melanie because she truly makes a difference!

Melanie is kind and really listens. She is very easy to talk to, has an easy going personality, and is very empathetic. She is knowledgable about mental health which was a huge help to me as a newly diagnosed bipolar patient. I am very thankful I found her.
