About The Owner

Hi, I am Melissa. Welcome to my site. Looking for a therapist can be challenging and I applaud you for getting this far.

I created this group practice to help as many people as possible. My ultimate goal in this life is to send a ripple of compassion and love through this world in a way that can make it a better place. I have spent the last 18 years of my career helping people find healing and quality of life whether that be in the form of individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, supervision or mentorship.

Anyone who works in this group has had extensive experience in a variety of modalities that can help you feel better as soon as possible. I only hire those that I would feel confident sending a family member to. I hold us all to very high standards to make sure you have a great experience.

Feeling better is possible. Let’s get started.
