Work with Melissa Herb (she/her) (LCSW) - BetterHelp Online Therapist

Melissa and I have been working together for almost a year now, and I am so impressed with how much she genuinely cares about our therapeutic relationship, and how much growth I have made while working with her. Week after week she proves that she knows her stuff! I take a lot away from our sessions and value our weekly chats so much. Highly recommend Melissa and BetterHelp to anyone who is looking to work on improving their wellbeing.

I’ve had such an amazing experience with Melissa. Finding a non-spiritual based LGBTQ+ accepting therapist is so hard, ontop of that finding somebody that responds frequently and is helpful when they respond is almost acting for the impossible. I’ve been with Melissa for about a month now, and she’s been absolutely amazing. All of my concerns have been addressed, my special accommodations met. I’m never guilted for needing to reschedule my appointments. She’s sweet, understanding, caring, yet bold and wise. She also will disclose when she dosen’t know much about the topic, but she doesn’t shut me out, but listens to my issues and offers what advise she is able. And when she can’t, she listens, understands, summarizes and takes note, and remembers everything you’ve said. Absolutely recommend.

Melissa is an amazing supporter. Extremely responsive, especially when my thoughts are all over the place and need those questions to help me. She’s great at asking thought provoking questions to help me dig deeper and love her relation to music

Melissa has been so supportive in helping me navigate my grief. She has offered some great ideas and shifts for me that I would not have thought of on my own and kept me accountable to moving forward and processing everything so I could move forward while honoring my feelings.
