I have been working with Melissa for several years now and have had a wonderful experience. She does a great job of balancing listening, validating and offering her input. She has helped me recognize my emotions in a way I never had before, allowing me to stay present with my feelings rather than pushing them aside. Through our sessions, I’ve developed a deeper sense of self-awareness and an ability to treat both myself and others with empathy and understanding. She has helped me practice kindness and compassion towards myself and younger versions of myself. I’m very grateful for the impact she’s had on my journey.

Working with Melissa over the last few years has been nothing short of transformative and I cannot express how thankful I am to have her in my life! From our very first session I felt seen and supported. She has helped me navigate multiple aspects of my life, including my anxiety, confidence, codependency, past trauma, and my overall mental health and wellness. Melissa creates a uniquely warm and comfortable environment that fosters trust and a true sense of safety. I deeply appreciate that she allows me to set my own pace and makes me feel at ease during every conversation. The insight and tools I've gained have truly transformed my approach to life's challenges. Melissa's compassionate and empathetic approach has not only helped me gain clarity but also empowered me to make real progress in my mental health journey. She has truly changed my life, and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking support!

I am incredibly grateful for the nine years I’ve spent working with Melissa. When I first began therapy, I was struggling with a damaging relationship and my own destructive patterns of behavior. I didn’t know how to start healing. From the beginning, Melissa provided me with a safe and compassionate space to explore my feelings, and untangle a great deal of confusion and hurt I’d been carrying with me. Melissa’s approach is both gentle and powerful. She has an extraordinary ability to truly listen, and hold space for emotions without judgment. Over time, I’ve learned to be mindful and hold space for my feelings. She’s taught me invaluable tools for coping with life’s challenges. I’ve come a long way, and I can honestly say that I am a stronger, more grounded person because of the work we’ve done together. Melissa has not only helped me heal but also given me the confidence to face life head-on. I truly feel ready to take on whatever comes my way, knowing that I have the resources to cope and thrive. Melissa is an exceptional therapist, and I can’t thank her enough for her unwavering support, guidance, and wisdom. She has changed my life in ways I could never have imagined, and I’m deeply grateful for her presence in my journey.

Finding the right therapist can be a daunting task, but I hit the jackpot with Melissa! I had previously worked with a psychologist specializing in CBT. It helped me patch up some superficial wounds but did not get to the root of anything. From the beginning, Melissa has been a safe place for me to express all of my thoughts and feelings. When Melissa challenges me, I know it comes from a deep place of caring. As much as I've grown and learned in nearly 8 years with her, Melissa has as well. I don't trust a therapist who doesn't do their own work. Melissa continues to learn different trauma-informed levels of care. I've learned to love, appreciate, and have compassion with parts of myself that I've been at war with for years. Not only has this improved the relationship with myself, it has positively impacted how I see, understand, and interact with everyone. To say that working with Melissa has been one of the greatest gifts of my life would be an understatement. I'm deeply and forever grateful for her compassionate, sincere, and humorous support all of these years. The only disappointment about Melissa being my therapist is that we can't be besties and hang out in 'real life.'

My journey with Melissa has been deeply rewarding and transformative. Through her guidance, I’ve learned to nurture and embrace parts of myself that I once demonized. I’ve always felt heard and safe sharing my personal challenges with her. She’s shown me how to set boundaries with those who disrupt my peace and taught me that their reactions to those boundaries reflect the inner work they need to do. I truly believe I’ve made the most progress in understanding myself while in Melissa’s care. Without a doubt, she has had a profoundly positive impact on my life, and I’m beyond grateful to continue this work with her.
