About Melany
I sometimes ask my clients, 'What makes you YOU?'
It's not an easy question, but it's only fair that I ask myself the same.
I have always valued fairness and justice. That’s probably why my first career was in the law. I love music and dancing. I find that when I'm mediating regularly, I am my best self. I love being a therapist. I'm so grateful to have found my calling, to help people overcome pain and stuck patterns. I have two neurospicy kids who challenge me every day and help me grow as a human.
I love science. I love learning about the role of the brain in chronic pain. I love learning. Period. Of course, successful therapy is not just about learning. Studies show the therapeutic alliance (the heart felt connection between therapist and client) is the most reliable predictor of a client’s success!
Finding a therapist who is the right ‘fit’ for you can make all the difference. I hope that we are the right match. I hope that I can help you finally get some relief from your pain and suffering. I hope that I can build you up and support you in all the ways you need. Feel free to reach out for a consult so we can get to know each other. I’d love to know what makes you YOU (and if you don’t know, I’d love to help you find out).
