Introduction

Melinda has been working as a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2001, and in private practice since 2016.  Her education background includes achieving a B.A. in Psychology and a M.A. in Counseling.  She is licensed by the Texas Board of Professional Counselors.  Melinda has previously worked as a therapist at Meir Clinic of Richardson, and as an adjunct professor at Dallas Baptist University.   ​Melinda's approach is direct, respectful, and considerate of the unique needs of each client.  A personal approach is taken using effective, research-based methods for helping clients achieve their goals.  ​"Each client has a unique healing journey. My goal for therapy is to facilitate change and insight in my clients so they can discover their strengths. These gifts enable them to work through problems and find a new way of acting and reacting. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are utilized to grow spiritually and personally, and learn to use our pain and adversity as tools to gain wisdom and eventually thrive."Introduce yourself to prospective clients. We suggest adding how you got started, any treatment or client specializations, and how your services can provide a meaningful impact to clients.
