Finding yourself lost and unsure which direction to take your life?
Doing whatever you can to fit everyone else’s expectations of you, even when it doesn’t feel quite right?
What if there was a way to embrace all parts of yourself with compassion,
To find your path in life without apology,
And to let go of the self-doubt, the critical inner voice, and the fear of others’ judgement that’s been holding you back?
You’ve started a new chapter of your life, but something is keeping you from feeling confident, excited, and sure of the path you’re on.
Maybe you’ve realised that you don’t actually know what you want out of life, or maybe there’s a cycle of self-doubt and feeling lost that is wearing you down.
You know it doesn’t have to feel this way, but finding the energy to actually make all the changes you want feels overwhelming.
You’re ready to understand the parts of yourself that seem to be holding you back ... and you just need some support to make it happen.
Hello!
I’m Melissa
(pronouns She/Her/Hers)
Counsellor, Registered Social Worker (RSW)
I am here to hold space for all parts of you.
The messy, uncertain parts.
The put-together, “doing” parts.
The sad and fearful.
the overwhelmed or ashamed—all parts are welcome here.
As your counsellor, I will show up authentically in my own humanness, so that you might also show up in your own humanness and be fully seen, heard, and understood.
Whether you are coming to me because of a difficult past or out of fear about the future, I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, trust, and a deep knowing that you have the healing wisdom already within.
In our work together, I will support you on a journey of remembering your inherent worth and wholeness, and reflecting back that part of you that is aligned, calm and centred.
I create a warm, compassionate, and inclusive space, where you will be supported to gently lean into and move through the discomfort, so you can fully embrace a sense of self-acceptance and self-love.
Navigating this world can feel confusing and overwhelming.
But you do not have to be in your pain and hurt alone.
