I have practiced in social work since 2007. I hold a clinical license as well as a doctorate--with an emphasis on child and family interventions. During this time I have had the opportunity to work with people from very diverse backgrounds and a vast array of life challenges. Within my time in practice, I have come to appreciate the importance of a good connection from client to therapist.
With this in mind, let me tell you a little about my therapeutic approach. Through my professional experience and within organizations, I have found my passion in interpersonal relationships; whether they be familial, work-oriented, or romantic. I am strength-based and solution-focused with my client's personal goals in mind. My objective is to support my clients with open, direct communication, and challenging thoughts. I believe in personal growth and forward progression.
I am comfortable in all communication platforms, whether it be texts, phone calls, or video conferencing. You can review my availability, but if you would prefer a different time please reach out to me to schedule. I really enjoy helping people embrace the beautiful dynamics life presents and I look forward to working with you, should you believe we would be a fit.

I was hesitant about starting therapy and trusting that I would find someone who I could trust. I was matched with a therapist from better help but found a distaste in my match so I got worried I signed up and would be right that no one could help me but I promised myself to give therapy a try. So I did a search for my therapist and found Dr. Hardin. Her profile seemed to carry a level of professionalism that I was seeking. Through her share on about me I could read her level of integrity, confidence in what she does, and discipline to the practice. Everything I value so I chose to start my therapy with Dr. Hardin, still with hesitation. Our first session was amazing. Through our first session I noticed I could trust her, feel understood, heard, and she carried the objective lenses that I needed. Someone who can see what I couldn't and she delivers it in an empowering way. I am lucky to have found her through this and believe she is a needle in a hay stack! We will be going on our third session and the experience has been supportive and everything that I need in my life at the moment!

An absolutely fantastic therapist. She makes you feel heard, no judgement, and really knows how to get to the root of your problems. I owe so much of my mental health progress to Dr. Hardin’s assistance

I was very pleased with the help I got from Dr Hardin. She was very thorough and helpful with my recovery from a depression episode. I liked how supported I felt. She was creative and thought outside the box when it came to my career. I'm definitely feeling back on track and mental balance

Dr Hardin was exactly the person I needed during my difficult times. She is warm, funny and just so great at what she does. She made me feel comfortable to share anything that was on my mind and gave me great advice from how to study to how to deal with my negative thoughts. She has been a delight to work with.

Dr.Hardin has been a asset for me in the short time I've been working with her. She has shown genuine care for my situation and has reached out just to check on me and shown compassion and respect. I highly recommend her.

I honestly started this counseling session thinking that I wanted to do it but last minute I thought I didn't really need it. But I decided to give it a try. I only had 1 session with Dr. Hardin, but wow! Definitely, it was beyond my expectations. I already feel like I have a connection with her & she guided the session in such a great way that it helped me realize that it's something that I needed and will greatly benefit me. Like she has stated in her profile, she has this solution-oriented session where we are trying to work on a certain aspect & try to improve. Right after having my 1st session, I had to share it with a friend and she is definitely going to be trying "Better Help." I enjoyed my session so much that I hope that my friend will be matched with a counselor as great as Dr. Hardin.

Dr. Hardin is awesome and has helped me through some tough times.

Working with Dr. Hardin has been a transformative experience for me. After years of substance abuse and poor boundary setting in relationships left me with personal and professional anxiety, Dr. Hardin gave me concrete strategies and helped me gain insight into what was driving my behavior. Four months later, and I am happier with my job and relationships that I can remember. I would recommend Dr. Hardin for anyone.

Dr Hardin is simply amazing. After many, many therapists and years of anxiety, depression and other mental and physical problems I feel like she is truly helping me move through and forward. She gives actionable suggestions and is very caring, kind and compassionate. A true gem!!

I have been working with Dr. Hardin for four months now, and I've had amazing breakthrough and progress in processing my emotions, habits, and social life. I look forward to our sessions, and I am interested in doing the work and advice she gives me to examine and evaluate and process my issues and conflicts.
I would highly recommend her.

I came to Dr Hardin with so much baggage and she helped me open every suitcase of baggage I had, not be afraid of the contents, and to then be able to deal with them and sort them accordingly and put them where they needed to go, Dr Hardin helped me unpack my baggage, but she couldn’t do it for me. She taught me that I did the work, she only guided and supported me through it. I have taken away tools, techniques, and a different mind set. She showed me that I have overcome many struggles, and showed me the true power I have of getting back up and facing my demons head on, and being proud of myself for being able to do that. I have learnt that no feelings are “bad” but all feelings, positive and negative need to be respected and given time and space to feel, rather than try to avoid, runaway or bury them. A big thank you to this amazing counsellor who made me feel comfortable and took the time to understand me and help get me into a better place again. A lot of love and appreciation for Dr Hardin and betterhelp!

Dr. Hardin is an amazing counsellor and has given me all of the support and help I could ask for. I cannot recommend her strongly enough.
Written on Jul 13, 2020 after therapy with Melissa for 3 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety
Dr. Hardin has given me many practical tools and exercises to understand the issues I’m facing. Being encouraged to think critically about my own thoughts and the situations I’ve been in and articulate them through worksheets and regular journal entries has been so valuable.
Written on Jul 07, 2020 after therapy with Melissa for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and trauma and abuse
I have never done a session like this before but I can tell that will be able to help me. I have either a councillor that doesn’t understand what I am trying to tell them or uses technics that is really confusing. I haven’t felt that with Dr. Hardin.
Written on Jul 03, 2020 after therapy with Melissa for 2 weeks on issues concerning addictions
Knowledgable, manages to be very professional and friendly at the same time. Takes a results-driven approach. Goal oriented, and great at communicating ideas that may but tough to hear, but necessary to heal. Listens to your ideas, and applies strategies that align with goals that you have set.
All in all, I'm grateful to have been matched with her. 5 out of 5.

If you are taking the important steps to better understand or heal yourself through counselling, I wholeheartedly recommend you choose to work with Dr. Hardin. One of the best decisions I've made for myself this year was to try her strength-based, solution-focused approach and I can personally attest that Dr. Hardin's years of experience, therapeutic insight and own fortitude immediately puts you at ease and helps you find your voice in every session. Her consistently warm and non-judgmental demeanor is a testament to the selfless kindness that makes an incredible counselor and brings out the strength and will in her clients necessary for positive personal growth. I am grateful to call myself her client and to work with her again in the future.
Written on Jun 26, 2020 after therapy with Melissa for 1 week on issues concerning relationship issues, and trauma and abuse
Dr Hardin is very skilled and personable. I feel confident she is very experienced and professional. And she helps me to look at my issues in a safe and nonjudgmental way. She has a very inspirational way about her that gives me optimism that I will get through my difficulties and come out the other side so much the better. ..although this is pitched at a realistic and honest pace. So glad she was allocated to me.
