Melinda Paige

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, substance use, or low self-esteem, therapy can be a place to feel understood, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes. I’m Melinda Paige, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience supporting individuals through difficult seasons and helping them reconnect with their strengths.

I believe you deserve a therapy space where you can show up as your authentic self without judgment. My style is warm, open-minded, and empowering, and I work with diverse clients to help them feel heard, valued, and comfortable throughout the therapeutic process.

My goal is to meet you where you are, understand what you need, and help you build the confidence and tools to move forward.

My approach is flexible and individualized because no two clients are the same. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Focused CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches depending on your needs and goals.

Together, we’ll explore the thoughts, emotions, experiences, and patterns that may be affecting you while focusing on practical ways to create change. Whether you’re working through trauma, managing anxiety or depression, navigating substance use, or strengthening your self-esteem, I’ll support you with compassion while helping you take meaningful steps toward your goals.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and understand what brought you to therapy. We’ll talk about your current challenges, what you hope to accomplish, and what you need from your therapy experience.

You’ll have space to share your expectations and what feels important to you, and we’ll work together to establish goals that feel realistic and meaningful. My priority is making sure we’re on the same page and that you feel comfortable, heard, and supported as we begin working together.
