About
Melissa
Melissa brings a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their life experiences, while also being mindful of client's cultural identities and how they shape their experiences and worldviews. In sessions, Melissa brings a calm presence and will listen to clients with no judgment, and from a place of empathy. She helps clients find their own strengths and helps empower them to address their challenges. Melissa enjoys seeing clients' progress throughout their journey in therapy and rediscovering their inner strengths, confidence, and self-love.

In her spare time, Melissa enjoys exploring national parks, binge watching TV shows, watching sunsets, and going on walks. She finds joy in music, concerts, and spending time with her daughter.
