Melanie Dowler

Seeking therapy is a significant and personal decision, and I understand the importance of finding the right support. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs with a focus on helping you achieve greater well-being. I work with adults, children - including preschool-age and families experiencing everyday stressors related to work, home, or school. I also provide support for communication difficulties, trauma, ADHD, autism, and behavioral concerns. Together we can develop practical tools, process difficult experiences, and work toward healing, stability, and a greater sense of calm and connection at home.

I seek to help through a compassionate and authentic approach, meeting you where you are at without judgement. I will educate and encourage you to use new ways of thinking and acting to improve overall individual, child, parent and family wellness as I acknowledge that change is difficult and respond with compassion and understanding while also challenging you to expand your comfort zone so you can seek out peace. I incorporate faith based principles by client choice.

Focus in therapy can be developing distress tolerance, minimizing stress, managing anxiety and depression, developing assertiveness and self-acceptance, setting boundaries, improving relationships and coping with adult and/or childhood trauma. Sessions are available for individual adults and children, families, and parent and child.
