HI, I'm Melissa Welch, and I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker Supervisor (LISW-S) in the State of Ohio.
How come these "tell us about yourself" questions seem so awkward? I'm much better in real life. After all, it is an energy exchange, right? Let's connect and see if we vibe!
I help adolescents, adults, couples, and families move beyond patterns that keep them stuck. Using EMDR, CBT, and DBT, I focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and creating lasting change. I approach therapy with a clear understanding of how past experiences can shape current patterns, while helping clients build practical tools to improve daily functioning. My background in crisis work allows me to provide steady, effective support even in high-stress situations.
I was a counselor for 15 years prior to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I have been a prescriber for the past 8 years. I have always focused on children, adolescents, and adults in my practices.
I specialize in wellness approaches using vitamins and minerals and traditional Western medicine options. I'm goal-oriented and want clients who like to develop a relationship with their provider. I like to make appointments about your goals and desires. I will meet everyone on their path, and we will work toward whatever makes you feel comfortable. I offer flexible scheduling with day, evening, and weekend appointments. My clients report that they love the flexibility and their growth.
