Influential Therapy

About
Hi, I’m Mel, a graduate intern therapist who works with teens, young adults, and adults living with invisible conditions that are often misunderstood or overlooked. Many of the people I support have spent years feeling dismissed or gaslit by others, including medical providers, and carry the weight of chronic stress, trauma, and self-doubt. I work with individuals navigating chronic pain, illness, fatigue, and disability, especially when those experiences are shaped by trauma, perfectionism, or neurodivergence. My approach focuses on helping clients understand the connection between what they have lived through and how they feel now so they can begin to feel more grounded, validated, and in control.
