Recent Updates From Melinda Marcelluskincaid
Last updated | Monday February 17, 2025

Do you seek more balance, understanding, connection and freedom in your relationships with yourself and others? I create a safe and supportive environment to help you through difficulties to become more positive and live with presence in acceptance and peace. Whether we work to create boundaries, increase self-esteem, decrease destructive patterns, or move through painful life experiences, together we will process what you are going through in order to obtain clarity, solutions, and personal growth. My hope is that we can find contentment in our present moment & live fully in that moment each day.
I believe in the importance of establishing a therapeutic bond in the working relationship between client & therapist. I work interpersonally in the here & now, combining principals and practices from object relations, family systems, & experiential therapies. I also have over 13 years experience of helping children & teens with their personal challenges.
I utilize somatic and art therapies, relaxation & mindfulness practices, depth perspective, as well as practical applications and approaches. By combining these therapies, we address the whole person & attend to the importance of the mind/body connection in the healing process.
