Additionally, Melissa incorporates emotion regulation skills training to help clients manage intense feelings and respond more effectively in stressful situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Melissa collaborates with each client to determine which techniques best fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting methods over time as progress unfolds.
