“Melissa is an awesome therapist! I really enjoy working with her. She's laid back, fun and energetic, shows empathy, gives great feedback and has an awesome personality. I have never had a therapist like her before. I am able to open up and get everything on my mind that weighs heavy on me, out. She truly is amazing. I cant say that enough. I'm grateful that I was placed with her. She's been the best. My over all experience at lifestanse has been fantastic. But if you need a good therapist, Melissa is a great choice for a therapist.”
