Melanie Short

Would you like to thrive in your life, rather than just do your best to survive? We believe that most people routinely tolerate high levels of stress and begin to feel hopeless for far too long before they reach out for support. You might struggle from a change in sleep patterns, feeling overwhelmed, increases in anxiety, fighting with family and friends, being irritable most days, and feeling disconnected or unhappy with your life. In fact, many people just try to survive life this way. We believe that even one of these symptoms is enough reason to seek support.

I am trained in EMDR, which is very effective for targeting traumatic life events, addiction, grief, depression, anxiety, and other disturbing situations. I also tend to be very solution focused and strengths based, as I want to help my clients feel relief very quickly.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Love First Certified Clinical Interventionist who has been specializing in the field of addiction and mental health since 2008. I approach situations with care, seek to understand, avoid judgment, and make all attempts to empower my clients.
