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. Starting at $65 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

She is so easy to work with. With my unorthodox work schedule she make it easy for me to schedule our sessions.

Overall

Melissa is truly a visionary in the field of therapy. I have never been challenged in my thinking the way that I have in her sessions. I strongly recommend her for your therapeutic needs, especially if you are exhausted of trying the same old methods that just do not seem to work for you. She actively listens, provides exceptional feedback, and gives “homework” outside of sessions if you so choose to really help drive the content of what you learn in therapy to apply within your day-to-day. Could not recommend her enough!

Melissa is wonderful! She is open and never judgmental. She challenges me in areas that I need it, and is great at checking in to make sure we are on the same page. She is very responsive to feedback and adjusts her approach based on it. Definitely would recommend her!

Melissa is the perfect example of what I look for in a therapist. She listens intently, follows even my most scrambled thoughts, is very real and down to earth, and provides a safe and supportive space that is incredibly needed. I feel extremely comfortable and enjoy each session and feel much better afterwards no matter what headspace I start with

Overall

Absolutely, 100%, the best therapist I've ever had. Melissa provides more than just talk therapy. She provides homework, coping mechanisms, and a new perspective while being both honest and validating. Melissa practices active listening and empathy will not letting me get lost in my spirals and thoughts and offers compassion while providing discipline and helps me recognize the thing I AM doing. She is responsive and genuinely cares about her patients... Going as far as finding resources for the individual in the form of links, videos, or local events of interest. I cannot recommend Melissa enough.

Overall

She is open-minded and does not pass judgement or put her own bias during therapy sessions. This is extremely important for a person like me. One of my triggers is someone putting a personal bias on something so it is hard for me to find someone who is able to understand this. She has been a great person for me to talk to and plan how to overcome my stressors and manage them healthfully.

Melissa is absolutely fantastic. It is my first time in therapy and she is helping me work on things that are important to me and helps me recognize things I need to work on. She is kind, funny and extremely good at her job. Each session feels like exactly what I needed at that moment and chats in between sessions help connect the dots.

So far, although it’s only been two sessions, I’m really pleased with Melissa’s straightforward approach and ability to pinpoint key things in the moment so that I leave the session with tangible, useable tools for feeling better day to day! Finding the right vibe with a therapist can be really tough and this has been an excellent experience overall.

Melissa is an incredible therapist. She is very supportive and always brings fascinating insights that lead to profound breakthroughs. She is fantastic at reframing experiences and bringing a new perspective to your thoughts, feelings and experiences. She brings many different modalities, philosophies, practical tools and insights into therapy that have really helped me in my life, work and relationships. She sets homework and is very timely and available. While she is very caring, she is also able to call you out on your nonsense. My life has completely changed for the better since working with Melissa. In fact, overall, I'm happier than I have ever been. I feel like I got super lucky with her! I highly recommend working with Melissa: 10/10.

My therapist really knows her stuff. She is so professional, easy to talk too and really has helped me to achieve what I asked help with. Working through some of my negative thought pattern and deal with my emotions in a healthy way. Sometime I feel like she has a mirror to my brain. Truly glad we were matched.

Melissa is an excellent therapist ! I love how she incorporates different models of therapy and she bases her beliefs in spirituality. I feel so good about our connection and she has helped me tremendously in a short amount of time. Melissa listens , is non judgmental, and offers such positive feedback. She sends clients session feedback and wants honest evaluations, good and bad. Honestly, I can’t think of one single thing that is bad ! She is amazing !!
