Hello, My name is Melody LeVane. I have been a licensed therapist in Texas for over 15 years. I graduated from the University of Mary Hardin Baylor with an MA in Counseling Psychology. I have worked with adults, couples, and adolescents, as well as traditional and non-traditional families. At this time, I work mostly with adults. When I’m not working, I enjoy cooking, arts and crafts, and spending time with my family, friends, and our four rescue pups, Monkey, Panda, Roxy, and Zoey. My approach is trauma-informed, strength-based, collaborative, and holistic, blending mind and body. While I use elements from various therapeutic modalities, my primary focus is on providing Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. However, I also use elements from Somatic Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Positive Psychology, the Gottman Method, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I provide a safe, accepting space where clients can explore their perspectives and experiment with shifting identifying habits that may be holding them back. My goal is to guide clients on a journey of self-discovery, offering realistic hope and the tools they need to move forward with grace and grit. My hope is that clients leave sessions feeling empowered, seen, and equipped to face the challenges ahead. Life is like a roller coaster. Sometimes, the ups and downs happen so fast that it's easy to get caught up in the ride and lose track of where we want to go. Sometimes, there doesn't seem to be enough time to figure out how to slow down, and at other times, all you can do is hang on for dear life. Every person's roller coaster is as unique as they are. If you are not satisfied with the way your life is going, therapy can help.

As a licensed professional counselor, I am licensed in the State of Texas with five years of professional work experience. I hold a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling, and I am currently in the process of completing my doctorate in counselor education and supervision. I also hold a Master's of Divinity and serve as the senior minister to a non-denominational church with an openness to interfaith and interspirituality. I have over 25 years of ministerial experience, offering spiritual direction and pastoral counseling in various locations around the world. I am quite comfortable navigating the secular as well as the spiritual at the request and needs of my clients. I primarily work with everyday issues such as stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence/coping with life changes. However, I have also experience working with individuals with neurological differences, including autism spectrum disorder, bipolar disorder, and many other mental health disorders. I primarily work from an existential-humanistic perspective, which focuses on the individual's meaning-making in life as well as the potential they strive toward while overcoming the challenges that may present themselves. I also believe that you are the expert of your story and have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Moreover, I integrate with narrative theory, which looks at your life's story and see how you relate to the challenges that may concern you at present. Additionally, I often implement feminist theories, which view our challenges through the perspective of oppression and privilege depending on the many cultural variables (e.g., race, gender, LGBTQIA+, etc.) that make up the beautiful being we are. Finally, I am learning to include the concepts and ideas of internal family systems (IFS) in my counseling practice as a way to combine many of my approaches in a respectful and curious way. However, regardless of my foundational and integrated approaches, I carefully apply modalities that have shown to be effective when working with specific concerns (e.g., cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, etc.). Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, and I honor your commitment to doing so. Let us get to know each other and see whether we are a good fit. My role is not that of an advisor, telling you what to do, but that of a companion who happens to walk with you, pointing out what may be relevant, as you explore your own path back to your natural state wellbeing.
