Introduction

Hi, my name is Melissa Elder. I provide therapy as a licensed clinical social worker in the OKC area. I come from a systems and strengths based perspective. I work with teens and adults. I am committed to helping people heal themselves. I enjoy working with clients who want to begin the journey of understanding themselves better. Showing up for yourself is hard work but it's not something you can do alone; you need an anchor. I have found real hope and healing in my own journey and I would love the opportunity to be an anchor in your journey. In addition to therapy I also provide clinical evaluations for those applicants working to obtain a US immigration visa. Hardship, VAWA and Assylum visa applicants who are needing a completed clinical evaluation can schedule a free 15 minute consultation with me by clicking on the "Request Appointment" button below.
