Getting to know Melissa Bowen

My approach to therapy is more integrative since we all have different needs and learn differently. I assess the client in the initial meeting to see what approach would be the best fit for them and to make sure I am the right fit also. I have worked mostly with children, teens, and adults who have experienced trauma. I have worked with people diagnosed with ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Substance Abuse, Schizophrenia, Bipolar, and ASD. I have worked with domestic violence survivors, child abuse victims, veterans, and those dealing with relationship issues, grief, and sexual issues. I usually start by building rapport with the client and build a great trusting and therapeutic relationship where the client feels comfortable sharing. I love helping others, and I realized years ago, I really enjoyed listening to people and helping them with whatever problem they may be having. I discuss setting goals with the client and either set them right away with them or wait until they are more comfortable. Everyone is different, and sometimes people are unsure of what goals they would like to set, so we work on those in the sessions together. The initial intake usually involves me asking about their history and trying to identify what brought them to seek therapy. We spend the first session trying to get to know each other.
