Hi
My name is Melissa, and I'm the counsellor at the Women's Well. My counselling work with people is gentle, reflective, and centres on what matters most to you. Through careful listening and shared exploration (I'm naturally very curious!), I support you in making sense of your experiences, reconnecting with your values, and finding ways forward that feel authentic and manageable.
If you are looking for a steady, respectful space where your experiences are taken seriously and your voice is central, you're welcome here. I am guided by what feels safest and most supportive for you. I practice person-centred and narrative therapy.
I want all of my clients to experience a calm, safe space where you can speak freely, feel deeply heard, and explore what's happening for you without judgment.
I work with people from all walks of life and issues, including:
relationship separation
adoption
family members of those who are incarcerated
grief
loss
domestic violence
shame
guilt
depression
anxiety
adult men and women
I look forward to working with you
