I’m so glad you’re here

Meet Melissa

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) by the National Board for Certified Counselors. I am also a certified perinatal mental health professional (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.

My own difficult journey of becoming a mother led me to explore a second career as a mental health counselor. I believe this personal and professional experience allows me to bring a unique perspective to the therapeutic relationship.
