Melissa has an extensive background with teens, which is why I felt confident choosing her as our therapist. She is very knowledgeable and has a gentle demeanor, which has been so helpful for my daughter. She really looks forward to her time with Melissa.

I’ve only had 2 sessions with Mrs. Wiles so far, and it’s been great. I very much appreciate her straight forward approach, while also being caring and supportive.

I am only two sessions in with Melissa, but already I feel so much more seen, heard and supported than the other therapist I was matched with. I specifically chose her due to her expertise and her kind personality as I move through some tougher issues. I’m so excited to continue to work with Melissa! I would highly recommend her.

Melissa is a great listener and always finds something positive in our sessions. After a session I leave feeling heard and with something to work on for the week ahead.
