She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship or intimacy concerns.

Her approach is practical and person-focused. She listens first, then helps clients notice patterns that keep causing pain. Sessions often include goal-setting, skill practice, and conversations about how emotions shape behavior.

Over two decades of work have included helping people with attachment issues, codependency, blended family challenges, communication problems, and substance concerns.

Online support
Emotion-focused care delivered online
Melissa uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and change the emotional patterns that lead to conflict and disconnection. EFT focuses on feelings and attachment needs, which can be useful for relationship stress, intimacy concerns, and patterns that repeat across different relationships.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means she centers the person’s experience and follows their lead in sessions. This approach helps people feel heard and builds a collaborative therapeutic relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool she draws on to teach specific skills for managing difficult thoughts, reducing anxiety, and changing unhelpful behaviors.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and recommend methods that fit their needs. That collaborative process makes it easier to try techniques and adjust them based on what helps.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when they want it. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between sessions.
