About Melanie

Are you your own worst critic and have trouble feeling lovable? Are you preoccupied with feeling liked, accepted, and approved of at the expense of getting your needs met and living an authentic life? Maybe you’ve tried traditional talk therapy and find yourself stuck. I use a combination of somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems therapy, Inner Relationship Focusing, and ketamine-assisted therapy to address each client’s needs and help them create the lasting change they’re looking for. I specialize in working with women, creatives, and queer folks. I work particularly well with people wanting to address anxiety, spirituality/existential issues, codependency, C-PTSD, divorce/breakups, and dating. My expertise also spans recovery from love addiction, narcissistic abuse, coercive control, cults and high-demand groups (especially Mormonism), and religious trauma. Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation today to see if we would be a good fit for working together.
