"Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a covenant between two equals."

-Gregory Boyle-

Meet Melissa

Melissa is a compassionate therapist specializing in empathetic and transformative care. Her approach, informed by neuroscience, includes somatic, emotion-focused, trauma-informed, and attachment-based methods. Melissa's holistic practice considers the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, helping clients uncover root causes and guiding them toward personal growth and transformation.

Believing in the power of relationships as catalysts for change, Melissa emphasizes the importance of early attachments and fosters a supportive therapeutic relationship. This foundation helps clients build healthier connections with themselves and others.

Inspired by Henri David Thoreau's quote, “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation, and go to the grave with the song still in them,” Melissa believes everyone has a story and purpose that needs to be heard and validated. She strives to create a safe and inviting therapy space where clients can uncover their true selves and sing their unique songs. It is an honor for her to journey with you as you invest in your life.

Melissa is currently full for clients but please email the office at info@veritytherapy.ca to be put on her waitlist.
