Melanie Becic

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 2.1 mi away • Meridian, ID


I specialize in high-demand professionals, overwhelmed mothers, men's emotional health & anger management, former college athletes, and relational wellness. You might be an attorney or executive facing intense burnout, a mother caught in a constant fight-or-flight cycle, a former athlete losing your identity after competitive sports, or a man struggling with anger and communication breakdowns in your relationship.

I graduated with a Master of Arts in Professional Mental Health Counseling from Lewis & Clark Graduate school of Education and Counseling (Portland, OR) in 2023. As a graduate student I interned at Allies in Change in Portland, OR, facilitating men’s groups and received specialized training in abuse intervention, mens issues, and anger management. My past experience makes me especially able to connect with and understand individuals in high demand careers. I am also skilled at teaching people how to communicate effectively in a variety of contexts both personal and professional.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 7.1 mi away • Boise, ID


I am passionate about brain and mental health. Over the years, I have built the belief that strong mental health is foundational to a successful, fulfilling life. However, I have also found there are no cookie-cutter solutions given the complexities of the human experience, thus inspiring a passion for a thorough, thoughtful, and individualized approach to brain and mental health. I earned a bachelor degree in nursing and in psychology, and a master's degree in psychiatric mental health.
