Great to meet you!

Now offering in person sessions in my Therapy Shed in Cortland, NY!

A strong connection to your therapist is the cornerstone of good therapy and is more likely to lead towards personal growth and achievement of your therapeutic goals. My name is Melinda and I have over 20 years of clinical experience. I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship issues and narcissistic abuse.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am personable, warm, understanding and an active participant in therapy. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood and successful in your healing journey. I specialize in evidenced based therapist and tailor them to your specific needs. I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma focused therapy (TFCBT), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and I'm currently being trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS).

What you can expect from our first session

I work with adults who are seeking to find peace and contentment. We will work together and devise a plan to help you maximize your success in therapy and your life goals. I currently hold in-person appointments Monday through Thursdays between 4:00 - 8:00 PM at my Therapy Shed located in Cortland, NY. Feel free to schedule a 15 minute consultation to see if we would be a good fit!
