About Melanie
With ten years of experience, Melanie draws on several practical approaches to meet everyday problems. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and build new habits. She also brings Client-Centered and Mindfulness methods that prioritize listening and present-moment awareness.
Sessions focus on clear goals and small, doable changes. Melanie helps people practice skills in session and apply them between meetings. Conversations often include looking at thoughts, testing assumptions, and trying new behaviors in real life.
Her work addresses a wide range of concerns beyond mood, including coping with life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep and eating issues, and burnout. She also supports people navigating family-of-origin problems, caregiver stress, and career-related strain.
Melanie is based in Colorado and works in English. She asks new clients to use the site Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a first appointment. If you want to talk about depression or another concern, she aims to make the first session practical and understandable.
