About

Hello I’m Melanie, a clinical social worker (LMSW) licensed in Michigan with 27 years of professional work experience. I am married and a parent to four adult children. I work with all issues people struggle with, in all age groups. My experience is in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, attachment issues, coping with grief and loss, addictions, and eating disorders. I want others to also find their purpose in life and live life to the fullest. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling, purpose filled, and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
