Hi, I’m Melanie, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the owner of Rise Again Counseling. I provide virtual therapy to teens and adults across Maine, supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, life changes, and ongoing stress. My background includes working in outpatient mental health, and I’ve built my practice to be a place where people feel comfortable, understood, and supported as they work through what’s weighing on them.

The opportunity to serve clients seeking mental and behavioral health treatment is one of my life's greatest gifts. I believe in the strengths of each client, and I believe their pain, challenges, and story. Through relationship-building and a mutual exchange of information as we define and refine goals of treatment, and the use of our agreed-upon tool kit (evidence-based intervention modalities), we will engage with curiosity in a mutual exchange of information, exploring, discovering, learning, and skill building to meet treatment goals. If you know why you are here, I am here for you. If you don’t know exactly why you are here- perhaps a thought, a feeling, or experience lead you here- I am here for you. People are unique, complex, multifaceted, and deserving of care.
