About me

Beyond loving to help people become better individuals I enjoy exploring the world and learning new cultures, caring for animals and being outdoors. I have over 6 years of experience working in the mental health field. I earned a Master’s in Arts in Counseling Psychology from Anna Maria College and a Master’s in Science with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Massachusetts Boston. I have experience working in different settings such as at home, mental health agencies, hospital and school settings.

I use a holistic approach in my treatment working with a diverse background with various mental health dispositions. Some of these areas I have experience in includes treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, cultural diversity, work stressors, life transitions and also help in redefining values and beliefs. Modalities I have implemented in my treatment approaches includes cognitive behavioral therapy, humanistic therapy, solution focused therapy, person centered therapy and expressive therapy. I also have pursued training in trauma focused therapy where I help individuals explore past traumatic events that shape them to who they are in the present moment and striving towards becoming better individuals in the present and future.

By creating an unconditional, supportive and trustworthy environment I am hopeful to helping individuals explore their full potentials by using their challenges and strengths to reach their goals and to pursue future endeavors. Looking forward to exploring this journey together.

I have only worked with Melissa a short time so far, but she is very kind and friendly and has been helpful and willing to listen and offer solutions to the experiences I face. She makes me feel heard, safe and comfortable enough to share my thoughts and feelings. Id definitely recommend her to anyone looking to work with a therapist.

I was apprehensive to start therapy again but melissa was instantly warm and melted all doubt. I look forward to our calls but leave feeling strong and stable enough to take on our goals for the week. She has diverse expertise and approaches and I love how open she is on her own life. Highly recommend!!
