*Accepting new clients*

I am a licensed professional counselor with over 27 years working in the behavioral health field including the private practice sector and in leadership positions running several residential treatment programs.  I currently hold licenses in Texas, Missouri, and Georgia. My focus is to help individuals overcome their behavioral health issues through Cognitive Behavioral Treatment, Biofeedback, and Virtual Reality Technology. I have extensive experience working with children and adolescents in addition to couples and family therapy.

I am a full-service provider of Substance Use Disorders (assessments & ongoing treatment) that utilizes an evidence-based treatment approach. I also specialize in the treatment of Depression, ADHD, Marital Issues, OCD, Trichotillomania, Eye Lash Pulling, Eyebrow Pulling, Skin Picking, Stress, and Anxiety.

I provide Biofeedback Therapy which is a highly effective research-based treatment for anxiety disorders including OCD, ADHD, Trichotillomania, Skin Picking, and Anxiety. The individual is taught how to properly respond to their anxiety and it is one of the ways they can learn how to manage and control urges without the use of medications.

I provide in-office and telehealth appointments. I offer 15 min consultations to answer any questions you might have about the treatment process.

*Not currently accepting new clients*

Hello! My name is Melissa and I am a board-certified Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience. I was born and raised in the North East and later relocated to Tennessee to complete my undergraduate degree in Social Work at the University of Memphis. After working for several years in community mental health and foster care, I relocated to Missouri to attend graduate school. I attended the University of Missouri and completed my master’s degree in social work with a specialization in trauma therapy in 2010. I have three boys, ages 21, 14, and 8. I enjoy traveling, spending time with my pets, and recreational time outdoors. At times, you can find me engaged in experiential-based therapy with various groups such as the Wounded Warrior Project, working on rope courses, white water rafting, kayaking, and pushing outside of my comfort zone.

I have a client-centered approach to therapy, meeting you where you are at, with compassion and encouragement. I believe in helping others to live authentically, free from judgment, and developing value-driven behaviors that lead to increased peace of mind. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, substance abuse, relationship conflict, family dynamics, parenting/co-parenting, stress management, ADHD, trauma, and PTSD. I am trained as an EMDR therapist in addition to other treatment modalities.
