Melissa has been practising psychotherapy for 20 years and brings a thoughtful, integrated approach to her work. Her toolkit includes CBT, DBT, EFT, SFT, Trauma Therapy, EMDR, and Integrative Relationship Therapy.
She shared that her own challenging adolescence set her on a personal healing path — and that psychology felt like a natural fit both for how she’s wired and for her deep interest in people’s inner worlds.
Melissa completed her undergraduate studies in psychology and worked in a juvenile sex offender facility in the U.S. before returning to Canada in 2010. She now lives and works in St. Catharines.
A passionate trauma therapist, Melissa continues to weave her lived experience into the support she offers clients. She’s also the proud (and busy!) mom of three daughters, ages 5, 7, and 16.
Outside of work, she loves reading — both fiction and books that deepen her understanding of psychotherapy. At the time we spoke, she was reading Fire on the Horizon by Wilbur Smith and Judgment Detox by Gabby Bernstein.
Melissa is currently accepting new clients and offers both virtual and in-person sessions. You can connect with her here: https://www.psychologytoday.com/profile/277770
Thank you, Melissa, for your dedication to the art and craft of psychotherapy — and for all you bring to this field with heart and presence.
With love,
Mahshad

This is a film sharing ancestral wisdom for trauma recovery as well as an online gathering (the live version is over but you can purchase the recordings and they are wonderful) with a range of indigenous elders and wisdom keepers from across the globe.
If you have adequate cultural competence around indigenous communities on turtle island and are an independent practitioner, you might be eligible to be an NIHB provider.
