More about me

Licensing: LMHC, LPC Years in Practice: 13 State: California

Welcome! As your potential therapist, I would like you to know that I really value the relationship that we create together in therapy. Before we have a chance to meet or if you want to have a better understanding of who I am, I have included some information about myself so you can decide if we might be a good fit. Having an open and trusting relationship is very important in making the most of our time together and getting the support you need.

I completed my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Marquette University. I have been in the mental health field for over 13 years, and I have enjoyed using my training as a licensed psychotherapist to help many different people from all walks of life. I have been meeting with clients online for the past 9 years.

I am passionate about empowering others, creating awareness around difficult situations, and ultimately supporting people in creating meaningful lives and relationships. I primarily use a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) framework which means we problem-solve together to understand and change the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that interfere with your fulfillment and success. I also often incorporate other theories and skills (e.g., mindfulness, psychodynamic, etc.) with the understanding that each person's treatment should be individualized to their specific needs and preferences. Prior clients have shared that they find me to be warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental.

I look forward to meeting you!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

Melissa is an amazing counselor! I genuinely mean that. From the very first session up until now, Melissa has continuously showed me she cares about her clients. She listens. She guides. She's easy to connect with. Her intentions are good and she knows what she is doing. She is seriously the best counselor anyone could have! Melissa makes our sessions very comfortable. All the progress I've made in therapy, in the past three months, wouldn't be possible without her help. I am truly thankful to have a counselor like her!

Overall

Melissa is the most supportive person I have ever met. I am so thankful that I have her. She listens, understands, and offers realistic and helpful solutions. She gets a read of what solutions would be within a realistic, reachable distance. Rather than saying, "start exercising every day." She says let's try exercising once a week and congratulating yourself on this big accomplishment. I am so thankful for her.
