About
Have you observed a change in your child lately? Have you been able to pinpoint the underlying cause by yourself? As a concerned parent, you want your child to feel safe, secure and confident. From schoolwork to bullying, social media, societal pressure, pandemic and other issues, multiple events, people, and things can influence your child's well-being, but it can be quite challenging to get them to open up and share their experiences with you. Children often find it hard to express certain feelings, emotions, and traumas that affect their behavior, interaction, friendship, and overall wellness.

That's where I come in. As a Wellness Counselor, I work with your child to address their individual needs. Using mentorship-based counseling techniques, children and young adults can confide and get help without the pressure of fitting into societal standards or seeking approval from authoritative people. During our sessions, your child will be able to discuss their dreams, aspirations, problems, and even incidents that they are keeping hidden.

Our sessions prioritize your child's well-being, rather than a diagnosis. As they pour out their emotions and let go of the weight they have been carrying, they will gain confidence, feel empowered, and make progress.

I am Melissa, a Board-Certified Practitioner and a highly rated mentor and counselor. My practice serves families across the country virtually, while my office is based in Los Angeles, California. We offer a range of counseling services for children, adults, and parents, deal with issues like anxiety, trauma, lack of motivation, stress, awakening, and more.

A free consultation is available for you to determine if my practice is right for you. We can also discuss Parent Support Sessions for more peace in the home and support during tough seasons.

Join me in helping your child gain greater confidence, security, and peace of mind. Let's connect to help your child overcome their challenges and reach higher levels of success.

When I sought support for my 12-year-old son, Melissa was a true blessing. Her guidance enabled him to process his emotions and thoughts with clarity. He eagerly anticipated their sessions, and Melissa showed genuine concern for his progress. She also made it a point to communicate with me and address any issues I observed. Melissa is undoubtedly skilled in her field and a pleasure to work with.

I am thrilled with the progress my two sons have made since starting therapy. I enrolled them to provide a safe space for them to learn healthy coping mechanisms for managing any present or future emotional issues. Our therapist is fantastic, she listens to the parents and prioritizes the mental health of her patients. I feel grateful to have found such an exceptional therapist.
