Great to meet you!

Mental health care works best when you feel understood. Melissa believes that lasting change begins with taking the time to listen, ask thoughtful questions, and understand the person behind the symptoms.

Melissa is a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who has been caring for adults since 2013. She treats a wide range of conditions, including anxiety, OCD, depression, bipolar disorder, and other mood- and stress-related concerns. Her practice is grounded in evidence-based care while recognizing that every person's experience is unique.

My approach to therapy

Clients appreciate Melissa's warm, authentic, and down-to-earth style. She creates a space where people feel comfortable being honest about what they're experiencing—whether they're navigating persistent worry, intrusive thoughts, low motivation, emotional exhaustion, or life transitions. Her goal is to help clients gain clarity, build resilience, and experience meaningful, lasting improvement.

What you can expect from me

Your first appointment is a conversation. Melissa will discuss your concerns, review your history, explore what's been working (and what hasn't), and develop a personalized treatment plan together. Her goal is for you to leave feeling heard, understood, and with a clear path forward.
