She has 20 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship strain. Melissa focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier and relationships clearer.
Her style is warm and down-to-earth. She listens carefully and helps people name what feels hard. Sessions often involve learning small skills to manage strong feelings and improve communication.
Background and approach
Melissa blends structured techniques with space for people to reflect on their values and goals. She commonly supports people working through trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, anger, and major life changes. Additional areas of focus include attachment issues, codependency, blended family concerns, and substance use difficulties.
Melissa also offers help around family of origin issues, divorce and separation, and hospice or end-of-life concerns. Melissa uses a mix of client-centered approaches, cognitive behavioral ideas, emotionally-focused work, existential reflection, and relationship strategies from the Gottman method. That mix lets her tailor sessions to the problem at hand.
The aim is straightforward: reduce distress, strengthen coping, and improve how people relate to others. People who contact her can expect a respectful, goal-oriented process. She works with each person to set clear, realistic steps and to track progress over time.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Melissa integrates client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people feel heard and to reduce distress. Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building trust so people can clarify what matters to them and set personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and impulsive patterns.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address relationship and intimacy concerns by identifying and shifting emotional patterns that keep partners and individuals stuck. The therapist treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. Together they will talk about your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different preferences. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick updates, ongoing support between sessions, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and practical while working toward clearer communication and better coping.
