Melinda Green

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Hi, I'm Melinda. If anxiety, depression, anger, or substance use has you or your family feeling stuck, I understand what you're facing. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a behavior teacher, lead special education teacher, and annual review and dismissal (ARD) facilitator, giving me deep insight into the challenges families face within the education system. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, drawing on that background to help you build real skills and lasting change. I love what I do, and I want to help you become the strongest version of yourself.
