Getting to know Melissa Galica

I hold the strong belief that people are perfectly imperfect. They are beautiful and spectacular but can also become stuck, unable to live a fulfilling life. That's where I come in. As a passionate and certified Mental Health Counselor, I bring a rich educational background with a Master's in Counselor Education and a Master's in Sociology from Texas Tech University, as well as a Bachelor's degree from the University of Wisconsin. My experience allows me to understand the best ways to address each client's needs in an effective manner. I am flexible in my approach and use collaboration as the basis of my therapy. Let's do this!

What should a new client know about working with you?

Each session you should come away with a challenge, maybe a hard question you have to dig a little deeper for, maybe an action plan to move forward, maybe even asking you to do one thing that makes you feel okay. The hope is each session brings a little more insight and clarity to your life.

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.
