Melissa White

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and bachelor's level Registered Nurse. I have over 20 years of experience as an LSCW and have worked with adults, children and adolescents in various settings including hospital, in-school, in-home and in the community. I went back to school to obtain a bachelor's in nursing to further my understanding of the physican body and the impact on mental health. With my dual license in nursing and clinical social work, I bring a unique perspective and holistic approach to your healing journey, exploring physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of your life. I provide resources for practical use including podcasts, written materials, music recommendations, YouTube videos and books depending on your preference. I focus on teaching skills that can be used across multiple aspects of your life and are designed to help break you out of old cycles and habits, enhance presence and awareness, improve tolerance of distress and emotions, and in general, help you move through life with more ease, grace and flow.

My approach is highly individualized and holistic including mind, body, and spirit. I believe each person has the ability to heal themselves, to live their most enriched and fullfilled life and that I have the skills to help unlock those abilties. I offer empowerment, encouragement, acceptance, clincial knowledge of evidenced based practices and a dedication to find the best strategies for your success.

in our first session, we will review your goals for therapy, background information, and what days and times are available. I provide an overview of my approach to therapy and invite you to ask me questions to determine if we are the best fit. Finding a therapist is an important decision and the therapeutic relationship is the most important foundation for your healing journey whether that is me or someone else.
