I’m Melody and I help clients create a life they love. I have a passion for helping women make the changes necessary to work towards a more fulfilled self.
Life can be beautiful yet messy. Emotional, physical, relational, and professional stressors can leave you feeling overwhelmed and emotionally drained. Perhaps you feel disconnected from yourself and others. You feel dissatisfied with your body and food. Or perhaps you feel held back by the past. You find yourself in a cycle of unhealthy habits. You’ve been so busy caring for others that you end up ignoring your health. We’ve all been there.
Working with me means focusing on how to care for you so that you can blossom into the best version of yourself. By caring for yourself, you can heal from your past and find new ways to navigate your present. You no longer need to be at war with yourself. Sessions with me offer a safe space where you can prioritize yourself and reclaim your well-being.
I graduated from Southern New Hampshire University with a BA in Psychology with a focus on mental health. My Master’s degree is in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University. I have additional experience working with:
- Eating Disorders
- Trauma
- Relationship Issues
- Grief/Loss
I provide a calm, nonjudgmental space for my clients. My sessions include:
- Holistic therapy, with mind-body approaches
- Skills and self-care strategies for managing stressful life circumstances
- Exploring patterns that influence your relationships and beliefs about yourself
- Building trust and deeper insight into self
In addition, I’m a certified yoga instructor. I enjoy guiding others as they learn to express and strengthen themselves through movement. In my free time, I enjoy being outside in nature, meditating, and spending quality time with family and friends. I offer telehealth sessions to clients in NJ. Together we will work to create an authentically empowered life.
