Melissa Benson

She is a great therapist. Always listening, understanding and helping! We value her guidance and one thing i love is she will check in on us.

My husband and I both love Melissa, she is awesome! We are meeting with her about family issues we are experiencing outside of our marriage and she has been extremely helpful!

Melissa is a skilled listener and makes great suggestions towards our therapy goals. I respect her greatly

Melissa hears me! I would recommend her any day to anyone who is struggling. She is very helpful and would bring in helpful ways to support myself as we wade through difficult situations in life

I have only had one session but so far I enjoy working with Melissa. She's a great listener and probably solver.

I had a lot pre conceived thoughts on therapy and whether or not it was good for me but I can’t help but notice the positive impact for me in my life!

Melissa is a very knowledgeable and thoughtful therapist. She questions perspectives and prompts us to think about our thoughts and feelings in real time! She is kind and attentive and is a great listener!

I really like Melissa's perspective on things, in the past therapist would do little talking but I like how Melissa lets me talk but also explains things with regards to the issue I talk about so that I can learn from it and gain a new perspective.

As a couple, Melissa has given us actionable advice, worksheets, and perspectives in understanding ourselves as well as in communicating with our partners. She has given us tools not just to survive our relationship but to have our relationship thrive.

Melissa Benson has been an Amazing therapist. She is REAL and listens to your story and ensures to give you the help you need.

I’ve already recommended this excellent service. Melissa is fantastic. So much clarity. My life has better direction

Melissa is very respectful and works through problems with you in a variety of ways depending on how long it takes for you to successfully work through things. She gives very helpful assignments that will help you identify things that are hard to describe and gives you tools to help yourself.

After our first call session I honestly feel like she listened to both sides and gave both of us fair treatment and examples of ways to help in the problems that had brought us here I believe she did a great job.

Melissa has been so helpful in helping me and my wife communicate better.

Melissa is fantastic!
Very caring, patient, and positive. She gives great practical and useful advice.

Melissa is amazing! My daughter looks forward to her sessions. Melissa is easy to talk to and asks great questions. I'm so grateful we found her!

Great first experience! Looking forward to go through this process.

Best therapist ever!

Melissa is incredible. Through teencounseling.com, I was able to answer questions and get paired with a therapist. I was extremely grateful I got Melissa as my therapist because she has the education, knowledge, and resources far beyond what I ever expected from therapy. As a result of having therapy with Melissa, I have gained a greater sense of myself, those around me, and feel incredible! I look forward to continuing to meet with her and am grateful to feel that Melissa loves what she does and cares about me as a person. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone! Thank you Melissa!

Melissa is the best. It's always such a powerful session and gives me what I need to reset as well as power through my week.

Melissa is awesome! Talking to her is as easy as talking to a lifelong friend. She is compassionate, friendly, and able to pinpoint a person's comfort levels and mood in milliseconds.

She has helped me alot

I've been using teen counseling and have had the same therapist, Melissa for over a year now. I find it helpful, even in the times you think you don't need to talk to someone. Sometimes we have better sessions when I'm just getting something off my chest and don't have a specific hard issue. Melissa is great and really creative, even helps me come up with ideas for mobile work. Love my sessions with her! Thank you Melissa!

Melissa is awesome. She's been so helpful in giving me the tools and space to start my healing journey.

When I started therapy in late 2022, I thought I knew what I needed to work on. As time went on, Melissa helped me uncover things I had repressed. And recently, she helped me uncover some of my hidden talents. I've never felt as excited as I do now and that because Melissa would not give up. She kept asking me the best of questions that made me truly think. She's absolutely amazing!

Melissa has been exactly what I needed.

Amazing therapist! Listens and really cares!

Melissa has been a huge help in allowing me to unpack all of my emotions and recenter. She checks on me often if I'm quiet and I can tell she actually cares! I don't know how I would be getting past this difficult time without her.

Couples Counseling: So far...I have been so impressed with Melissa's ability to understand our conflicts quickly and to identify the root of the problems we are having. She is fair; exceptionally intelligent; kind; warm; and clearly committed to helping couples find common ground again. She has been masterful at giving us tools for ways to grow closer... yielding more joy; peace and intimacy. We both feel safe, heard, and optimistic. Melissa is a blessing to us.

She wonderful very intuitive and has a great grasp of issues that may or may not be apparent to the patient as they are to close to the problem to see simple yet major impacts small gestures or behavior changes can make it’s been both satisfying and educational to work with her.

Melissa is so sweet and has been so good to work with! She has so much knowledge and gives such great advice to help you work through your problems. I would Highly recommend her to anyone!

She’s very attentive and she always asks questions to understand my views on whatever we are talking about in that session

Great therapist, with a solid experience and eager to provide supporting options out of the therapy session.

She cares about her clients! Or should I say her friends/special people. She really takes the time to listen and makes you feel heard. She has good heart and has the experience to help you along the way. I don't feel rushed in our sessions and she always provides helpful information!

Melissa has so far been great, kind and helpful. Look forward to having great personal sessions with her in the future.

I very much appreciate Melissa! She gives me resources and helps me work on my issues. She’s very patient and listens very well and gives feedback. She’s also flexible which is very important to me. I don’t know what I’d do without her right now!

Melissa is very knowledgeable and has a great ability to communicate and explain. In only two sessions thus far she has already taught me invaluable techniques to learn how to manipulate my psiquis. I look forward to my therapy sessions, not only to feel better, but to learn. She has helped me change many miss conceptions I thought were normal until she gave me a completely different perspective on them and consequently I started seeing things differently and evolve in so many ways. I truly love my sessions with Melissa!

Melissa is a very non stressed person who helps others through calm reflective thought. I appreciate her calmness to my stress.

I have only had one session with Melissa, and I am scheduled again for next week. So far, she is amazing… Even though we have only had one session, she keeps in touch through the app. I feel like she listens well and understands exactly what I’m going through and is supportive and offers valuable feedback. I look forward to continuing this journey with Melissa and her support.

Melissa has been so sweet to my daughter on the teen counseling service. She is very responsive and I feel really good trusting her. She communicates so much with me as a parent. I always have notice of any concerns right away. She is a great therapist, support, and collaborator.

She is so upbeat and sweet. I like working with her so far

Compassionate and so much fun to talk to! I enjoyed Melissa's open and unpressured style.

Melissa has been great to work with. She is very experienced and was able to help my relationship with my spouse

Melissa is vibrant and makes sure not to take sides, even if one of you has the concern more than the other. She also has a lot of resources to share that makes your time outside of video sessions very supportive and still moving forward in progress!

Melissa has been tremendously helpful. She’s been very responsive, regardless of the time/day and I appreciate her direct , but loving guidance. I feel full confidence that she has both mine and my partner’s best interest in mind.

Melissa is a marvelous person first of all. She is intuitive to her clients needs and shows respect and toughness all at the same time. Her professionalism is amazing and I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is willing to work it.

Melissa is awesome! She definitely takes time to listen to what you need to say, and gives you the space you need to open up.

Melissa seems to understand me better than I do myself.

We both felt like she took time to understand our concerns and help us make a plan to grow together. So grateful for the experience.

Wonderful lady! She really helped us with our marriage

Melissa is extremely sweet and helpful. I have been impressed with our therapy session so far!

Melissa has been wonderful so far. I feel very fortunate to have her support and expertise.

Melissa has been very helpful so far. We are just getting started but I am hoping that it contributes to flourish.

Melissa is amazing. We just began sessions together and she is my guiding light right now in the confusing world we live in. She will get me sorted out I have a feeling she’s observing me right now as I am all over the place: I am blessed she is helping I was heading down a dark path of no return. Thank you so much Melissa! You I’m are my angel sent by my mom: thanks again and god bless Andrew

Melissa has been great. She always listens and always responds in a timely manner. I really appreciate her professionalism. She doesn’t take side, and best of all, she would send some worksheets and have a goal. I really like her and recommended her with no doubt.

Good

Melissa is great

Melissa has been a great support for me in my journey to recovery and healing in my marriage.

Melissa is great! Thanks for all that you do!

It felt more like tasks and homework to complete rather than helping us solve our relationship problems. No conflicts were resolved.

Since starting working with Melissa I’ve become more insightful about myself and have really been able to open up. I think she is amazing at what she does and it’s very noticeable how passionate she is to work with people and help people.

Melissa is compassionate, caring, and kind. She is super fast in responding to messages, very direct in goal setting, and uses positivity to encourage and motivate. You can tell she puts 100% hard work into helping her clients grow to be the best versions of themselves.

Melissa makes me feel heard, seen, and cared for. Her advice and Biblical counsel has been life healing.

This is me first time seeking professional help and Melissa has made this process much easier. She listens to all my of my needs and provides professional feedback with guidance on what we will be next steps for healing.

I am grateful for Melissa. Very comfortable sharing with her! She is Insightful and kind, also helpful in processing thoughts and feelings. Good recommendations for moving forward and upward.
