Melissa Schleier, LCSW

Melissa is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in trauma, with a particular focus on relational and attachment trauma. She works with people who may seem fine on the outside but feel anxious, disconnected, overwhelmed, or lonely. Melissa helps clients understand how early experiences can shape the way they see themselves and relate to others, while building greater self-trust, emotional regulation, and more secure, fulfilling relationships.

Her approach is warm, collaborative, holistic, and tailored to each client. Melissa is certified in EMDR, with advanced EMDR 2.0 training, and integrates CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and parts work to support trauma healing and personal growth. She creates a caring, judgment-free space where therapy doesn't have to feel heavy or clinical-it can be a place to breathe, laugh, reconnect with yourself, and feel more at home in your life.
