Therapist

Virtual • St. Louis, MO


Welcome!

Thank you for considering me as your therapist. I am Brenda Melton, PhD, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in nursing. I hold several specialty certifications and have experience treating anxiety and depressive disorders, as well as working with individuals struggling with addiction, personality disorders, and the effects of trauma.

One of the most rewarding parts of therapy is experiencing those "aha" moments—when a realization, insight, or new understanding suddenly brings clarity to a complicated life experience. These moments often provide direction, open new possibilities for change, and inspire hope for healing and growth.

I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with individual adults. I support clients navigating ADHD, neurodivergence, emotional regulation, relationship patterns, identity, and life transitions. My work is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, and grounded in the belief that therapy can help you better understand yourself, strengthen self-trust, and the clinical belief that any person can change course in life at any time.

I draw from approaches such as EFT, IFS, ACT, and integrative experiential techniques, tailoring our work to your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll explore emotions, patterns, and strategies that help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to yourself and the relationships that matter most.

Therapist

Therapy works best when you feel seen, heard, and safe enough to be honest. My style is warm, relational, and open. I approach every client with curiosity and without judgment, because growth starts when you don’t have to hide any part of your story.

I believe in meeting you where you are, not where anyone thinks you should be. Together, we’ll identify the challenges and barriers that are getting in the way of your personal growth, and we’ll build practical steps to move past them. My orientation is solution-focused, and I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities so that your care fits you rather than the other way around. My work is trauma-informed, which means going at your pace and putting your sense of safety first.

I have a strong background in treating substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, and women’s issues, including life transitions, identity, relationships, stress, and the pressure of carrying so much for so many people.


I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with more than 15 years of experience in behavioral health, including clinical care, care coordination, and employee assistance programs. Prior to my licensed work, I spent time working in crisis intervention and care. I also hold the CEAP credential to work with employees and HR and Leaders for coaching, strategy and professional development. My work in this area has spanned the US and global markets, which has given me experience supporting people from many backgrounds and life circumstances.

I’m a big believer in holistic living and whole-person health. I practice meditation and yoga, love gardening, and treasure time with my daughter, my dog, and my family and friends. These things keep me grounded, and I’m happy to talk about them if they might help you in your own growth.

If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to hear from you

Hi, I’m really glad you’re here. If life feels heavy, overwhelming, or like you’ve been carrying too much on your own, you’re not alone. I work with teens (12+) and adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, low mood, self-doubt, relationship challenges, or just feeling stuck and unsure of what’s next. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside. In our work together, you’ll have a calm, supportive space where you can finally exhale, feel heard without judgment, and start making sense of what you’re going through. We’ll work together at your pace to help you feel more grounded, understood, and confident in your life.

I specialize in helping adults navigate trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

My goal is to help you understand your experiences, build practical coping tools, and restore a sense of balance and confidence in your life.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Missouri and Oklahoma, offering teletherapy sessions to make care accessible and convenient. Together, we’ll focus on your strengths and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.

If you're carrying trauma, living with ADHD, autism, anxiety, or OCD, or just need someone to help you stay accountable, I could be your person. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri, and I recently started a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. I have lived experience with many things, so I understand trauma, and I'm open about my own mental health to help end the stigma around talking about it. In my wheelhouse is working with individuals, families, and children ages 6 and up. A little about me: yes, my name is really Kitten. I'm a mom to a daughter on the autism spectrum and to three dachshunds with larger-than-life personalities.
