After many years of therapy, Melissa has supported me in finally unearthing the self-confidence issues that are at the root of my anxiety and depression. I highly recommend working with her, especially if you struggle with anxiety and depression.

Melissa is wonderful! She checks in with me to see what is most important each week so that we can cover that. She remembers what we have discussed and looks for things throughout the week to help me when we meet next. She has wonderful experiences and helps me understand myself, much better. I would strongly recommend her to anyone!

Melissa is the first therapist I’ve had who has made therapy feel worth it.
She is professional, but still offers a strong sense of friendship and empathy. I find it extremely easy to talk to her and open up in a way that I’ve never been able to with previous therapists. I never feel as though she is being judgmental or fake.
I have been able to see much progress in myself since I started seeing her and I highly recommend you give her a chance as your therapist.
