Melinda is amazing! She has a very warm and welcoming presence. She makes me feel comfortable to talk to her about things that I have never been able to talk to any therapist or anyone in general about. She is a great listener and is not judgmental. Melinda provides me with videos , resources and activities outside of our actual therapy calls. I have nothing but extremely positive things to say about her. I love working with Melinda and rate her 10000000/10.
