Great to meet you!

Hello there, I'm Melissa, a licensed clinical therapist and a registered yoga teacher with a decade of experience in the field. I work with adolescents (ages 12 and up) and adults and specialize in the treatment of Anxiety and Trauma. I have extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I tailor the treatment to your individual needs and strengths to best meet you where you are in your inner work journey and help you successfully reach your therapy goals.

My approach to therapy

My approach is Integrative, Holistic, and Evidence-Based. Through Cognitive Behavioral and Trauma-Informed interventions, we will work collaboratively to help you identify and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior. I incorporate Somatic, Breathwork, and Mindfulness-Based techniques to gradually help regulate the nervous system and cultivate a deeper sense of connection to self.

What you can expect from me

Because awareness is truly the first step to change, in our work together you will gain greater insight into the areas in your life where you may be feeling "stuck" and we will identify behaviors that may be reinforcing these feelings. If you want to let go of old patterns that may be holding you back and you're feeling ready to experience the transformative power of change reach out so we can begin this work together!
