Great to meet you!

Melinda Fay is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a specialty in Art Therapy. I received my MA in Psychology from Phillips Graduate Institute in 2002 and I have been licensed since 2008.

My approach to therapy

My passion lies in the collaboration and co-creation of preferred stories. I work from a strengths based model which views the Client as the expert. I address the thinking and behavior patterns that are out of sync with the Client's core values and together we aim to transform them.

What you can expect from me

Goal setting is done at the outset of treatment and is a collaborative process. Over the first few sessions, a treatment plan with measurable goals will be determined with the client.
