I am a licensed clinical therapist with experience working in both crisis settings and long-term trauma-focused therapy. Early in my career, I worked at a crisis center where I completed my internship and later worked for several years supporting individuals in high-stress and emotionally difficult situations. This experience helped shape a calm, grounded, and compassionate approach to therapy.

I specialize in EMDR-informed therapy, trauma, attachment wounds, codependency, grief, and relational patterns. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in repeating emotional or relationship dynamics despite having insight into their patterns. My approach focuses on helping clients move beyond survival-based coping and create deeper emotional healing and lasting change.

I use a collaborative, person-centered, and attachment-based approach tailored to each client’s needs. I work with adults from diverse backgrounds and strive to create a supportive space where clients feel emotionally safe, understood, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process.

I believe in a holistic focused approach to therapy. I incorporate mind, body and spirit to achieve a regulated emotional state and balance in one's life. I believe that client's are the experts in their own life and I have a variety of therapeutic techniques in my toolbox to accommodate each individual to find their unique healing path.

I specialize in emotional support for teenagers, young adults and adults who are struggling with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. I support clients in developing a clear identity and understanding of their personal story, purpose and self-worth. I specialize in women in pregnancy, postpartum, and post termination.

If you are looking for support I would love to hear from you.

I'm so glad you're ready to take action! Starting therapy is courageous. My goal is to walk alongside you and encourage you further. I consider my role as therapist an immense privilege, and seeing people grow and heal through therapy never gets old!

After receiving my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Colorado State University, I worked in the corporate world as a business consultant. While working as a consultant, I frequently observed how people’s hectic work schedules and day-to-day stressors could slowly wear them down emotionally, resulting in their happiness being compromised.

Seeing this trend in the business world, coupled with the passion I’ve always had for understanding people’s thinking and way of doing things, prompted me to pursue my Masters degree in Counseling Psychology from University of Colorado Denver. Now with my professional experience and educational background, I can more easily navigate how to handle the day-to-day stressors and help my clients manage the mental health piece of their lives.

Hi. My name is Melinda. I have been working in the field of Mental Health and Substance Use/Abuse since 2005. I have been trained and offer resources for CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused, Mindfulness, Trauma-informed and many other styles of therapy.
