A Different Approach To Therapy

Hi, I’m Melissa! A lifelong learner and jack of all trades!

I am a trained Marriage and Family Therapist focused on relational systems and their impact on individuals, couples and families. I enjoy working with individuals and parents, integrating multiple evidence-based models with complex ideas, “rabbit hole” insights, education, and skills coaching, leaving you with new information and actionable steps toward deepening your relationship with yourself, your children, and others.

Transformation begins when we support the whole person—mind, body, and nervous system. I specialize in helping clients navigate stress, burnout, anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances and complex trauma by addressing the root of nervous system dysregulation. My practice combines relationally focused psychotherapy with cutting-edge tools like Braincore Neurofeedback and HeartMath training to help build lasting resilience and self-regulation. Recognizing that total well-being starts from within, I integrate holistic nutrition and lifestyle strategies to support your complete biopsychosocial foundation. As a USUI Reiki Master, I also offer energy work when beneficial to help clients tap into their body’s natural life force energy, promoting deep, holistic healing. The combination of systemically focused psychotherapy, Neurofeedback, HeartMath interventions, and holistic wellness interventions provides a strong foundation for you to master self-regulation and nervous system fitness, which I believe to be the root of many of our problems.

I am passionate about the work I do and truly believe that every single one of my clients has the power and wisdom to transform themselves, their mindset, their relationships and their circumstances.

I look forward to working with you!
