Meet Melinda

Hello, I'm Melinda. With 23 years of experience working with adults in both clinical and medical settings. I have had the privilege of supporting a diverse range of clients. I work with young adults, college students, working professionals, adults, adult caregivers, and Seniors, helping them navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, career and academic pressure, caregiver fatigue, and stress management. As a solution-oriented and down-to-earth therapist, I thoroughly enjoy aiding and supporting individuals on their journey to help themselves. My approach is warm and empathetic, providing a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions. I believe in empowering you to learn strategies that can improve your relationships, help you problem-solve difficult decisions, and enable you to live a productive life with intention. My schedule can change week by week, and my availability frequently varies. If you don't see an available slot on my calendar, please don't hesitate to send me a message. We can always work out a time that suits both of us. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you on your journey towards a healthier, more fulfilling life.
