 My practice name (The Door’s Open Therapy) reflects my approach to counseling: welcoming, open and judgment free in supporting individuals to overcome the barriers that prevent them from living fully and authentically. I specialize in the LGBTQIA+ community, but work with most mental health concerns. 

Do you constantly worry? Do you overthink plans and solutions to worst-case outcomes so that you feel prepared? Does everything have to be done perfectly? Do you have difficulty handling uncertainty? Do you fear making the wrong decision? Do you feel restless? Difficulty with sleep? Do you move from relationship to relationship? Viktor Frankl said, “When we are no longer able to change a situation -we are challenged to change ourselves." He really knew what he was talking about. Each life transition inevitably forces us to navigate "stormy waters." If the challenge has become overwhelming, it's time to get some help. I specialize in helping those suffering from anxiety, including health care professionals and veterans. You don't have to continue suffering. You deserve to feel better. As a seasoned therapist, I can help you feel empowered to stop the cycle of worry and anxiety, find your sense of purpose, and reclaim your life. The good news is that we've all gone through seasons of our lives when we feel this way. The first step is to reach out to someone for help. My approach is straightforward: together we will identify your goals, establish a problem-solving treatment plan, and go from there. If something is telling you it's time to begin your journey; give me a call.

I have over 20 years of experience helping people achieved their greatest potential when it comes to their mental health. I believe that nothing happens until the time is right and the time for you is now to allow me to aide in your personal healing journey. You deserve to be heard in a safe and non-judgmental environment where you are able to work through your pain. I am here to empower, listen and inspire you to work towards your greatest potential. Know that there is strength, faith and courage in your struggle. "You Matter" Reach out to me and let's take this journey together. Hope doesn't always come from within you. Sometimes, it lands in the palm of a helping hand "me" Melvinik

While the first step is acknowledging the change we need, it takes courage to recognize we need some guidance. It takes even more courage to initiate those first steps toward improving our lives. I specialize in providing therapeutic treatment for clients struggling with a wide variety of issues including, depression, anxiety, clients battling with issues related to sexuality, interpersonal relationship problems, suicidal ideation, and more.
