Melissa | Psychotherapist

Online Psychotherapy and counselling

Working through life's challenges together...

 

Hello! A warm welcome to my profile. My name’s Melissa; I’m an integrative psychotherapist specialising in personalising therapy to meet you where you are. With me, you'll find a warm, open, welcoming, safe space where you can be your true self.

 

I know searching for a therapist can feel overwhelming or daunting. You've taken the first step by looking for support, and that's worth recognising. My style of therapy meets you where you are, so you don't have to worry about having to adapt to therapy as I tailor it to suit you—whether that's a safe space to talk, a place to create change or a space to be challenged nonjudgmentally. Your voice is heard, and your needs matter to me.

 

I believe you have a chance of healing when you share your story with someone who is understanding, empathetic, and does not judge. I would like to offer you a welcoming space to hear your story truly.

If we can share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding, shame can’t survive.” - Brené Brown

In our sessions, I creatively pull together various methods, techniques and approaches from different therapies. We might delve into inner child work, attachment patterns or reparenting to understand how unmet needs from childhood affect you today. Together, we uncover and challenge old patterns that no longer serve you, helping you break free from repeating familiar and unproductive dynamics.

 

Therapy is a journey of change. I always strive to help you feel safe and supported in our sessions together. Your journey in therapy with me is designed to be your exclusive, safe space.

 

It takes courage to reach out for support. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support you. Do reach out, I am here to take it at your pace.

Together we can find a way forward.

Online therapy

I offer a free phone or video Q&A, which lasts up to 10 minutes, to discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and answer any questions you may have.

 

Your first session/assessment lasts up to 50 minutes. This will be more directive than usual, as part of routine practice we will discuss our working agreement, go through some of your details, I will also ask you some questions to understand more about your needs and go through documentation (GDPR, Agreement, and a series of questions about your mood will be sent to you before your session and these can be discussed within the first session).

 

It is important that you find someone with who you feel comfortable, which is why at your first session you will have the opportunity to ask me any questions and share your expectations for both your sessions and myself. This session is about getting to know each other, for me to find more about you and your needs and to share how I work. There will be a time in the assessment for you to speak openly about the issues you are facing.
