Meet Melissa

My specialization is in individuals and couples. I am someone who sparks change in people's lives and relationships by listening, exploring thoughts, and history, and uncovering patterns they may not even be aware of. I do this so that they can begin to have more control of their emotions and be excited about their life again.
