Great to meet you!

I’m Melissa, a bilingual counselor supporting individuals facing anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and relationship challenges. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming and affirming space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative and client-centered. I work closely with individuals and families to understand their unique experiences and strengths, and together we develop strategies to address challenges.

What you can expect from me

In the first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you and your background, understanding what brings you to therapy, and identifying your goals. I aim to create a safe and supportive space, knowing that opening up takes time, and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
