About Melissa Elliott
Leesa believes that working with the right counselor can shorten the path to personal goals and she values being part of that process. She encourages clients to build on their existing strengths by adding practical tools to their toolkit so they can apply new skills in current situations and as future challenges arise.
Her work often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an approach that examines how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. At the same time, she adapts her methods to fit each person, recognizing that there is no single approach that works for everyone.
