I'm psychotherapist Mellisa Gooden of A Good Place for Help. I have over 16 years of experience providing therapeutic care to others. I use a holistic emotionally focused systems approach to supporting couples while valuing each individual's strength and uniqueness. I am truthful, kindhearted, and supportive which allows for an open, safe, and peaceful counseling experience.
My training and clinical experience include serving adults, couples, families, children.
Some areas of specialty include relationship problems, intimacy, marriage/couples, anxiety, trauma, racial trauma, self-care, self-esteem, stress management, children/adolescent behavioral issues, parenting, family conflict, and wellness coaching.
In couples therapy, I work with couples to improve their relationship by tackling some of the most common issues like intimacy, communication, parenting, and money. Through counseling, I support couples in making lasting improvements to foster the loving, supportive, and passionate relationships of their dreams.
