Have been working with Melissa for 2 years now, and dealt with the traumatic tough stuff, much more resilient, have learned to manage anxiety and my mind is a much more peaceful place as a result, I also have better relationships with friends, family and the like, and my job is running smoothly as a result of the work done alongside therapy. Worth the long term investment, life changing all for the better. Self acceptance is here. More...
Listens. Empathic Understood what I wanted to work on and why quite quickly. Gave space and time to talk. Easy to talk to. I’m hopeful
Melissa is such an insightful, relatable and down to earth therapist. I'm blown away every session by the sheer amount of personal and proffessional experience she has and how she can identify connections that I never knew were present. I've had therapy and counselling from several other professionals but Melissa stands head and shoulders above the rest with the CBT therapy she was able to for my issues with anger and emotional regulation. Since then I've learned so much about myself and the nature of my relationships with friends and family. I feel so well equipped now to be a much more well adjusted husband and father and yet I still look forward to each call with her 4 months later. I whole heartedly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a therapist as thoughtful, sincere and well informed as her. More...
What do you love most about your job?
Helping people and empowering them to feel more confident and in control of their lives.
What inspired you to start your own business?
The flexibility allows me to assert my practice at my own pace and offer a better more considered service to my clients. When working for an organisations, there is a pressure from upper management to reach targets and the sessions are usually time limited. I don't believe the pace of gaining true psychological development and personal growth is something that can be measured in a time limited program. Everyone is different, and everyone experiences different complexities.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am experienced and kind. I value people and offer the same level of consideration for each individual's unique situation.
