Melisa Rae

Licensed Associate Counselor

Are you struggling to feel as though you fit in?  Feeling overwhelmed?  Uncomfortable in your own skin?  You are in the right place!  Melisa is a therapist who knows what it's like to be different.  With 19 years’ experience, she is here to honor your experience and help you on your journey.  Her approach is client-centered and can assist you in gaining a sense of comfort and confidence in moving through life.  She uses an eclectic approach including CBT and DBT concepts, parts work, empty chair, Motivational Interviewing, journaling, bibliotherapy, and other creative forms of expressive growth in her approach.

She is LBGTQ+ and BIPOC affirming and especially enjoys working with artistic and creative clients.  Melisa prefers to approach therapy from a holistic/spiritual standpoint rather than a religious one.  She is a student of metaphysical modalities and uses this to enhance her ability to remain centered and insightful during her sessions.

Times are stressful right now and having someone to offer support and guidance can mean a great deal in navigating life in a difficult world.  Please reach out for virtual sessions from your location anywhere in Arizona.
