Getting to know Melissa Ludwig

A little about me: My name is Melissa Ludwig. I’m not a conventional therapist! Clients have told me they appreciate my authenticity, sarcasm and relatability, and I often use humor and pop culture references when appropriate as I feel this helps diffuse difficult topics and often enhances the therapeutic relationship. I tailor my work with clients to each client's specific needs and personality style. I am licensed in Florida, South Carolina and Idaho, meaning I can see anyone who is physically located in any of these states during our sessions. In my free time I like to spend time with my animals (2 cats and 1 dog), go theme parks, do aerial fitness, roller skate, and spend time with cherished friends and family. I am a believer in human rights and welcome all genders, races, religions and lifestyles to my practice. I look forward to meeting you! I am trained in EMDR as well as Gottman Levels 1-3 and bariatric psychological evaluations. I am also certified in DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.) My specialties include: couples work trauma processing anxiety stress boundary work interpersonal conflicts self-esteem identity issues phase of life transitions
