More about Melissa

  • 15 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a credentialed mental health professional based in the United Kingdom with over 17 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. My areas of expertise include stress, anxiety, grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, career difficulties, and navigating major life changes.

I work from a foundation of respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I believe in the power of a collaborative, person-centred approach. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which I integrate into my work to help clients develop practical strategies for understanding and reshaping unhelpful thoughts, behaviours, and patterns.

Every individual is unique, and I tailor each session and treatment plan to meet your specific needs and goals. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I want to acknowledge the strength it takes to begin. I’m here to support you on your journey toward greater clarity, resilience, and well-being.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
