Melissa Addessi

I come from an art, philosophical and psychological educational background with a Bachelors degree in Psychology and a Masters Degree in Art Therapy. I have 4 years of experience working in mental health with individuals who experience anxiety, depression and trauma. I mostly utilize CBT, mindfulness and a psychodynamic approach for teens and adults.

I approach therapy by learning what is needed by the individual and working to use my skills and knowledge to fit what is needed and provide them with what they need to grow into more of who they want to be.

Clients can expect to be understood, encouraged, empowered and to gain more understanding of themselves and whatever difficulties they are going through. Clients will be provided with tools and skills to face those difficulties and to grow through them.
