Introduction

Hi, I'm Melisa. My goal in life has always been to help others, so this was easily my chosen profession. I specialize in helping people find relief from anxiety, depression, and past and present traumas that may be affecting not only their mental health, but their relationships. I use a variety of treatment methods and find EMDR and CBT to be very helpful in processing experiences that may be having a negative effect on you. Like many people, I have had my own share of traumas, and knowing we can successfully work through them keeps me excited to help others do that. It's really nice to be able to think about situations in a different way, one that doesn't stir up any negative emotions or cause you anxiety, depression, or stress.
