Get to know Melissa

As a dedicated US Air Force veteran, I have cultivated a unique blend of skills and experiences that inform my work as an educator and counselor. With a bachelor's degree in education, my passion has always been communicating ideas in ways others can easily grasp. Additionally, my master's in pastoral (Christian) counseling has been foundational in creating space for Christ to heal the brokenhearted. A specialization in trauma has equipped me with the tools to understand and support individuals facing PTSD, and attachment challenges through approaches like EMDR therapy. A unique blend of the two words is melded into my special approach. My commitment extends beyond the counseling office, striving to uplift and empower individuals who might not be able to access private pay counseling services. My mission is to help others heal and gain new perspectives on their lives, fostering resilience and personal growth.
