Hello! *PLEASE NOTE I AM ONLY OFFERING DAYTIME SESSIONS AT THIS TIME

My name is Melanie and I am a licensed clinical social worker in practice for over 18 years. I specialize in using individualized and research based treatment approaches for people who struggle or are impacted by a variety of life's issues. I am specifically interested in holistic based approaches to therapy that include the mind body connection as well as spiritually driven exploration in treatment.

Asking for help is difficult, but it’s worth it for the relief it brings. In 30 years of professional experience, I have witnessed the transformative power of therapy. I specialize in working with adult individuals. I am genuinely interested in you and your human experience. How has it shaped you? What obstacles has it erected in your path? Let’s get curious about it all. My complete respect and empathy are always present.

You might look like you have it together—but inside, your mind doesn’t slow down. You overthink conversations, second-guess decisions, and feel constant pressure to stay “on” at school, work, or in relationships. When things finally get quiet, your brain doesn’t—it gets louder. I work with adolescents and young adults who are tired of feeling stuck in that cycle. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but internally overwhelmed, anxious, or mentally exhausted. They don’t just want to “talk about feelings”—they want real tools that actually help.

I’ve been working with women, children and families for over 15 years in individual counseling, group settings, and program development. My expertise lies in helping people understand their own emotional experience, to use words not violence, to cope, to reduce impulsive and compulsive behavior, to advocate for themselves.

I believe to live fully, we must feel. Intensely. Viscerally. Freely. To feel pride and pain, joy and frustration. To taste the freedoms of life, as well as its restraints. To reconcile thoughts, actions and emotions that are often at odds. To square all of this with culture, beliefs, and history. To live fully is when a sense of equity, equality and balance is awakened. To live fully is to gain perspective and know that you can weather all of it, and not be overcome by these complexities, but learn to integrate them, for a full life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with clinical experience since 2019 across private practice, healthcare, and specialized care for older adults, couples, and families. I specialize in working with neurodivergent clients, LGBTQIA+ individuals, , and older adults.

Every session I conduct is rooted in trauma-informed care and a commitment to meeting you where you are. Incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI),Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I offer a holistic and flexible approach to help you develop effective coping mechanisms, strengthen relationships, and achieve your personal goals.

As a licensed therapist, I believe dignity and self-worth increases when wellness is prioritized. Many of us can grow, change, learn lessons and/or be shaped by our experiences, good or bad. I've worked the past 15 years helping adolescents, adults, groups and community organizations focus on restoration and personal development within their experiences.
