01About Melissa
Melissa Mee is a licensed counselor with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing depression, anxiety, bipolar mood concerns, grief, trauma, and life transitions. Melissa practices from Idaho and draws on practical, down-to-earth methods to help people move forward.
She aims to make the first steps feel manageable. Sessions focus on clear goals and simple strategies you can use between meetings. Melissa keeps her approach warm and straightforward so people can talk about hard things without jargon.
Background and approach
Her work often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors, with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice values and act on them. She also uses client-centered skills to stay attuned to each person’s pace and needs. That mix lets her adapt tools to what the client prefers and needs.
Melissa has supported people dealing with relationship strain, family-of-origin issues, caregiver stress, and career concerns. She also helps with concerns like isolation, guilt and shame, dissociation, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse. Aging and geriatric issues and seasonal affective disorder are additional focus areas.
Sessions typically work best when there is honest feedback about what helps and what doesn’t. Melissa encourages practical steps, steady progress, and regular check-ins so goals can be adjusted as people change and grow.

How Melissa’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match what matters most. It can help with mood disorders, grief, and stress when people want a values-based direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce depression and anxiety symptoms. It is useful for mood shifts, anxiety, and coping with life changes.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so the person feels heard and understood while working through concerns. This approach supports building trust and pacing work around the person's readiness.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That conversation guides which tools are used and how sessions are structured.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a real-life schedule.
