Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Melissa Martinez. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Drug and Alcohol Counselor (LCADC) and Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS). I earned my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Chicago School of Professional Psychology.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am very passionate in working with all different types of clients and believe that not one size fits all when treating mental health or addiction. I utilize several different approaches in counseling such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Therapy, and psychoeducation.

What you can expect from our first session

During sessions we will create goals or outcomes together that you want to work on by providing a nonjudgmental safe place.
