Waitlist for new clients
As an autistic person herself, Melissa is passionate about working with neurodivergent individuals and operates from a neuroaffirmative lens. Melissa prioritizes collaboration in the therapeutic process, believing that each person is the expert of their life–every person is different, with a unique set of lived experiences, identities, and perspectives, so she believes that treatment should be unique to each person, too. Treatment involves community and self-advocacy, incorporating intersectional cultural identities, supporting clients’ personal treatment goals, fostering self-compassion, and building community support.

If you are haunted by past trauma that doesn’t seem to get better with time, I am able to help you find relief. If your relationship has hit an all-time low, and you don't know if you can take it much longer, I can give you the tools to work through conflict and reclaim the love you have for one another. If having affairs or watching porn has gotten out of control for you or someone you love, together we can move toward healing for both you and your partner. If you’ve been disillusioned by religion and need to find a safe place to heal from spiritual abuse, I can walk with you as you find the kind of spirituality that works for you.

Counseling is a personal journey of vulnerability, reflection, and connection that can lead to greater self-discovery and peace. Many people seek counseling as they attempt to face moments throughout their life when they feel in need of a connection with others that can help build their strengths and ultimately, their resilience. We believe in the power of resilience. A person’s journey may be filled with many struggles, and it is their resilience that sees them through the toughest challenges. We work with people to offer the support, assistance, and connection that may be needed to continue a fulfilling journey.

You’re bright and driven with goals for your future. But you feel stuck. Everything looks so pulled together on the outside; polished, successful, charismatic or any number of other awesome descriptors. But inside is another story. You’re struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, fear of failure, crazy emotions, unhealthy eating patterns, or just the nagging sense that you’re never enough. Your childhood was chaotic, sure, but other people had it worse. Or maybe you’re one of the ones who ‘had it worse’. But now you’re an adult. That stuff is behind you so WHY can’t you just get a grip?! If this sounds familiar, we should talk.

Sometimes a difficult life transition, a series of changes happening one after the other can throw us off track and challenge the best of us. Or that feeling that you need to make a change in your life or your relationships is getting harder to ignore, because the same old band-aids are no longer working and the pain is not going away by itself. You are not sure how to go about it. Anxiety, depression, self-doubt creep in, and you feel stuck.

Does your home life feel chaotic and exhausting? Do you find yourself in screaming matches with each other? Has behavior become too much and too disruptive? Does ADHD, depression, or anxiety run your life? Maybe these issues have begun to affect your marriage, friendships, or the kid's school. If you are feeling frustrated, tired, anxious or depressed, unhappy with your own reactions and nothing you try seems to be working, then you are in the right place. I work with parents, children (5 and older), and families to strengthen their relationships, equip them to deal with changes, and bring rest, quiet, and peace into the home again.

I am a LCSW providing virtual therapy in AZ, CA and NV. In my work, I believe that the true health and freedom we crave present themselves when we align body, mind and soul and return to the instinctual, intuitive wisdom that exists within us to guide us on our life journey. Through returning to ourselves and the sense of safety, security and love that come with feeling safe and at home in our bodies, we are able to open to life and live fully. Working with me requires a willingness to do hard, deep, but gentle, work.

So, it happened. She left, he died, they fired you - life is not going the way it's supposed to. Normally, you have it all together. You go to work, pay your bills, take care of your family, spend time with your friends. But now you can't sleep, can't eat, can't focus. Work is a mess, home is a mess, you're a mess. That stuff from your past is haunting you again. The voice is your head is tearing you down all the time. You're lonely, tired, angry, sad, scared - you're simply not okay. But when you try to talk to your friends or family about it, it gets awkward and one or both of you shuts down. You don't know what else to do.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
