“Due to work, needed online counseling and really did not know if it would be a good fit. I have been in counseling for 30 years off and on and can honestly say that Melissa has helped me see SO clearly my actions and reactions, how to process them and hopefully heal that little abused girl inside. Best counselor EVER!!”

I had found myself in one broken relationship after another. I’d withdraw from conflict rather than vocalize my feelings of being made to feel unappreciated. So I tried to find my worth in online relationships with random women to stroke my ego. My sessions with Melissa opened my eyes to the fact I was blind to the reasons behind my actions. Once we had a few sessions I became way more self aware how my online behavior was interfering with having a much happier life

I can't recommend Melissa enough. She is an incredible listener who creates a safe, supportive environment where we feel heard and understood. She has helped my daughter and me work through our thoughts and feelings while gently encouraging us to dig deeper and gain a better understanding of ourselves. Her insight, compassion, and guidance have made a meaningful difference in our lives, and we're so grateful to have found her.

Melissa understands my mental health needs and is very attentive, intuitive, and insightful. She is teaching me things about myself and my triggers that have helped get me through unimaginative circumstances in my life. She is truly a blessing
