Hi, I'm Melanie! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 27 years of experience as a clinician in a variety of settings. Whether you need to work through some heavy stuff from the past that's been weighing you down or you just want to process some day-to-day work or relationship stress, therapy can be a major step in the right direction toward self-care! Prior to starting my private practice I was working for the Veterans Health Administration and I remain passionate about continuing to be an advocate for Veterans to educate them about and link them to resources and services that are available to them.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 27 years of experience as a clinician in a variety of settings.

First session

Our first session will be focused on getting to know each other in order to build a strong therapeutic relationship. I will answer any questions you may have and we will work together to establish a plan for treatment.

My sessions are tailored to the needs of each individual or couple. I incorporate a number of therapeutic methods and theories in my practice with a strong focus on trauma informed care and person centered treatment.

Ideal clients

I have a very diverse client base serving individuals and couples who are struggling with relationship issues, depression and anxiety, grief and loss, health issues and stress, etc.

Treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I allow patients to set the pace and for their treatment and encourage them to discuss goals, expectations and fears about the therapy process as well as any specific needs they may have.

She seems friendly while knowing her stuff. She shared some of her personal life with us, making us realize she's human, too.
