Biography

Hi, I’m Melissa Bryant, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 14 years of experience. My passion for this work has led me to serve clients in many settings — from schools and family homes to residential treatment centers and telehealth platforms. I’ve supported children as young as five and adults across the lifespan, including families navigating custody situations and reunification, where stability and continuity of care are especially important. I use a range of approaches, including CBT, DBT, Play Therapy, TF-CBT, Psychodynamic Therapy, Family Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and in our first session we’ll decide together which approach feels like the best fit.

Melissa was very informative, compassionate and relatable. I think my 14 year old will work well with her.

I appreciate allowing me as the parent to give some background information and share my concerns so she knows what type of goals to build with my child. My daughter embraced the first session and we are looking forward to continuing.

I appreciated the time the therapist took to get to know my daughter and figure out the best way to approach her during her sessions moving forward.

It went well. Melody was very hesitant with therapy initially and after today I think she is more open to the idea. I’m looking forward to seeing how it continues to go.
