Life transitions, especially those involving your career, can be incredibly stressful. Whether you are struggling with a loss of identity after an unexpected job loss, crippling anxiety from being between jobs, or frustration from working a job that doesn’t fit you, Melissa understands.

Change can happen. For many people that change starts from within. It is all about recognizing the unconscious beliefs that are holding you back. You can overcome these self-imposed barriers to be successful in ways you never thought possible. Melissa can help. She has more than 15-years of experience working with clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and other challenges in their personal and professional lives.

She creates a safe space. A space of non-judgment, encouragement, and support, where clients can make tangible progress towards their goals. Melissa works particularly well with those who feel they are struggling to fit in or feel like others don’t understand them. She will work with you to assess your values, interests, skills, strengths, and personality traits so that you can move forward in your life with confidence. She can help you clarify your career path and set attainable goals.

A licensed professional counselor, Melissa uses a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential, self-compassion, and coaching techniques to support clients. She treats the whole of a person, emphasizing mental, emotional, and physical wellness for a healthy work-life balance.

She works with clients from a variety of backgrounds and age ranges, including college students and those who have retired. In addition to career counseling and coaching, Melissa specializes in anxiety, depression, and stress management.

She works with clients to help them look inward, confront negative self-talk, and transform their thought patterns. She is passionate about helping people dig deep, uncover possibilities, and successfully navigate transitions. There is a path to the future you want, Melissa can help you get there.

You don’t have to settle and you don’t have to go struggle through these transitions on your own. We are here for you.
