Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Melissa draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her practice. EFT focuses on identifying and reshaping emotional patterns that affect attachment and intimacy - it is often helpful for couples and individuals working through relationship distress. The Gottman Method provides structured tools and interventions designed to improve communication, rebuild trust, and reduce conflict in partnerships. CBT helps clients recognize and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Melissa works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She combines approaches as appropriate and adjusts the plan over time to support meaningful progress in relationships and personal wellbeing.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from varied locations, accommodate busy lives, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are impractical.
