More about Melissa Bachelder, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a certification in Perinatal Mental Health. I provide psychotherapy services addressing women’s mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, low self-worth, body image concerns, codependency, chronic pain, and more. While I have over a decade of experience helping many clients with a variety of issues, my passion is working with women as they navigate major life transitions and enter into the journey of motherhood. My certification in Perinatal Mental Health allows me to both pursue my passion for women’s health and also be a leading expert in the field.
I am very committed to my work as a therapist. I have a warm and empathetic demeanor and provide a safe, welcoming, and comfortable environment in which to process difficult emotions and help people to heal. I utilize a variety of different evidence-based techniques depending on the client and what is needed. I use client-centered and strength-based approaches to convey empathy and meet the client where they are. I strive to empathize, but also to push my clients to grow and heal when appropriate. My goal as a therapist is to meet you right where you are and provide you with a space to blossom, as well as empower you to make changes and understand your worth. I would love to come alongside you during your journey.
I specialize in working with perinatal depression and anxiety disorders, helping women adjust throughout their transition into motherhood. I understand and empathize with how difficult this transition can be. My professional and real-life experience allows me to sit in this space with my clients while also aiding them to make changes and meet goals.
Additionally, I have a special interest in working with those who have experienced birth trauma. Unfortunately, birth trauma is a common event for a birthing person as often the experience of labor and delivery can leave a person feeling scared, alone, or in danger.
