Meet Melissa

I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, trauma recovery, relationship issues, and spiritual integration. In my counseling, I strive to create an understanding, supportive environment where people can process difficulties and explore solutions. I’m certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and work to balance understanding and validation with practical feedback and skills for change. I value integrating faith and spirituality into the healing process and supporting clients in self-understanding, emotional regulation, and resolving life problems.
