Melissa Wilson

Melissa obtained her Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with specializations in both Couples, Marriage, and Family Counseling, as well as Addictions Counseling from Walden University.  She has worked in both non-profit mental health centers and private practice.

As a therapist, Melissa values creating a non-judgmental space for her clients to improve their thoughts and behaviors to cultivate a better understanding of their needs, their feelings, and overall goals for the life they want to live. Melissa enjoys working with individual adults and couples, utilizing a variety of therapy modalities and approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, and Gestalt Therapy are a few of the theoretical approaches she likes, however the foundation of her practice is in honoring the inherent knowledge and experiences of her clients to help them find answers they are seeking within themselves. Melissa’s area of focus includes anxiety, stress, marriage counseling, depression, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, grief and divorce.

Outside of the office, Melissa enjoys reading, going on walks, and playing cribbage.
