Getting to know Melissa Clem

Hi there, I'm Melissa! Stress, anxiety, worry, and relationship issues can steal our joy in life. I am here to help you learn ways to communicate effectively in relationships, learn how to implement healthy boundaries, and learn skills to help you cope with anxious thoughts and stress so you can have joy and peace back in your life. Also, as a person who has overcome my own issues with self-worth, I enjoy helping others find their true value and learn to love who they are and discover their worth. My approach I offer both clinical counseling and faith-based biblical counseling in a relaxed environment where you will be able to talk through adverse experiences, explore your hopes and dreams, and make a plan to reach your goals to become the person you are meant to be. My focus I love working with couples and have specialized training to help couples get to the root of the issues you both are dealing with in your relationship, and individually, and try to help you both to learn how to connect with yourself and to get back to a place of deep connection in the relationship. I also work with individuals to help you discover your best self, develop fulfilling relationships, and learn to love yourself in or out of a relationship. My communication style My hope in the counseling session is for you to feel relaxed and accepted. I want it to be a place where you will be able to share your adverse experiences in safety, share your hopes and dreams, and a place where you can let your guard down and be yourself. I like to be able to laugh at times and be able to have a little bit of fun in the session, too. My journey to mental healthcare When I was a kid, people felt comfortable coming to talk to me about their issues, and I decided at a very young age that this was the path I wanted to take. Unfortunately, I also had some childhood trauma that led me down the path of substance use and addiction.
