Hi, my name is Melissa and I am a Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience providing therapy to adolescents and adults ages 12 and older. My practice is rooted in trauma-informed care and utilizes evidence-based approaches such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients process experiences, reduce distress, and move toward meaningful change. I am also inquisitive and a conversationalist.
My approach to therapy is to help you uncover what is blocking you from living your life to the fullest. I do not believe I hold all the answers; rather, I will assist you in discovering the answers to the problems you are facing through our counseling services. We will work together to find the best solutions to what is troubling you. I sincerely believe in listening to you fully and not judging you for how you feel or think.
With over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating grief and loss, life transitions, chronic illness, trauma (including first responders), aging-related concerns, and members of the agricultural and farming communities.
I provide telehealth services across multiple states, I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.
Do you often find yourself feeling empty – as if you float through your days going through the motions, rather than living an abundant and thriving life? Life can be difficult, and no matter how strong one may be mentally, there is only so much stress one can shoulder alone before it becomes too much. I believe in working together collaboratively in order to unlock one’s innate ability to self-heal. Through support and guided introspection, the answers to our troubles become self-evident.
I work with families, couples, and individuals ranging from ages 14 and up. I use a Strength Based Approach in session, helping you focus more on your personal strengths. Together you and I can build your treatment plan and discuss your goals. My goal is for you to become involved with making the treatment plan so the therapeutic process is successful for you. Throughout my graduate studies I have been trained in multiple therapeutic models.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Livonia
Searching for therapists in Livonia starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Some Livonia therapists focus on anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, or relationship challenges, while others may have experience with trauma, stress, or family concerns. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match what you want to work on. A profile that mentions approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy can help you understand how they may structure care.
Livonia is a smaller city, so local in-person openings may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Michigan while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether their schedule works with your routine. Reading therapist bios before booking can also show how each therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Livonia can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Livonia, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
