HI, I’M MELISSA.

Welcome! I’m so glad you’ve made the first step in your own therapeutic journey.

I support women of all backgrounds in their pursuit of healing, growth, and empowerment through effective, compassionate therapy.

I aim to give my clients the compassionate, unique, and transformative experience they each seek in therapy. I tailor an integrative and evidence-based approach to every person I work with, ensuring through your feedback that your therapeutic experience is working for you. This, coupled with the convenience of confidential and accessible telehealth therapy, are the vital foundations to my practice.

California born and raised, I received my MS in Psychology at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and fell in love with the Central Coast. I have been involved clinically (both pre- and post-licensure) since 2013. For 10 years I have grown my own therapeutic approach through experience in private practice, non-profit organizations, K12 schools, and more.

In my free time you'll find me enjoying the outdoors, quality time with loved ones, trying out new coffee shops, or immersed in a new book (I just finished Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari).

YOUR MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS. LET’S TAKE CARE OF IT TOGETHER.
