Monica Melchor, LMFT
Hello and welcome!
Taking the first step to seek support and find healing can be incredibly challenging. I want to validate the fact that you have made it this far!
In this space, you belong, and I am here to listen, to guide and support you. Building a healthy and positive relationship with my clients is an important key to therapy.
The space that we create is one that will allow for identity exploration, growth and ultimately help develop a healthy relationship with yourself and those around you.
My approach to therapy is through a strength-based, client-centered and trauma-informed lens. I approach therapy like a book, in which you get to decide which chapter to open, and I believe you have the power to create and decide what the rest of your story will look like. My specialty and passion is working with children, teens and families, and I am also fluent in Spanish and English. I recognize that family systems are culturally diverse and complex. It is my hope to meet you and your family where you’re at, with the intention of creating long-lasting change.
​
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and received my Master’s of Science Degree at San Diego State University. I am originally from the beautiful Pacific Northwest, Oregon, where I completed my undergraduate degree. I have experience in working in a variety of settings including, in-home based therapeutic counseling, residential treatment centers for teens and experience in school-based mental health services providing bilingual therapy for children and families. I am immensely passionate about my work in the mental health field because I believe many of us were taught to solely survive and not taught how to heal. Remember, you are not alone. Let’s start your journey together.
