Mel has helped me identify my core pains/beliefs and traumas. Exploring my childhood, exploring myself and teaching me how to self assess my awareness in situations, triggers and when emotions arise has been truly helpful. Really recommend Mel.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Melanie is a fantastic therapist and in the space of a short time she has already helped me with a great deal of issues. I would recommend her to anyone.
Melanie has put me at ease lately, she has been attentive and understanding whilst giving me a better understanding how I can help myself. She has provided me with material I can use whilst she isn’t there and has been great coming back to me if I have any questions. Would recommend Melanie to anyone who needs help
Mel has been really great so far! She’s been understanding and caring but will also be honest with me, which I really love. It’s been a very good start to my therapy journey working with Mel :)
Mel is amazing She listens and then comes out with such amazing ways of making my mind work and visualise what she’s saying. She’s a wonder
Very versatile, suggests different ideas to suit my various problems. Thinks outside the box. Highly recommend her.
Mel is one in a million. Supportive, understanding and focused on helping me. We get on very which is so important and I always look forward to our sessions. She identified that I had an issue with self love very quickly and we’ve been working through it ever since we started, I can truly say that my life has changed in a positive way because of it, thank you Mel ❤️
Melanie is so lovely and is easy to talk to. She has this calm manner and you feel safe opening up to her. I always feel relieved after talking to her, she provides great advice. Thank you Melanie.
Melanie has helped me significantly over the past couple months that I've been working with her! We got to work on experiences I had in my past that I never got to work on and resolve, and I've been able to practice forgiveness and acceptance on those events and experiences. Melanie always helps me to dive into situations and look into things in a fresh perspective, and I always feel like she's in my corner and that I can count on her. She also comes with a wealth of expertise and resources which has helped me so much! Thank you Melanie!
Miss Lingley is a knowledgeable and experienced teacher, in as little as one meeting I feel equipped to tackle my struggles head on and begin my journey in the right direction.
Mel has also kindly and firmly challenged me in exactly the ways I needed. Ever fair, ever respectful, and ever honest.
Melanie is amazing. She is proactive in her way of both listening and recommending positive ways to move forward. She has really aided me at my lowest and helped me through everything in the most amazing manner. Thank you Melanie :)
Mel is brilliant. I found her combined approach to therapy really helpful and I left our sessions with a variety of tools to help deal with life's ups and downs. She was easy to talk to from the very beginning and her support has been invaluable.
Mel is fantastic, I have made so much progress since beginning my sessions with her in late November 22. She is so responsive to messages and responds with genuine care, empathy and thought provoking messages. When I am having a hard time knowing that she is there honestly gets me through, I feel like I have my own cheerleader routing for me in the corner. I look forward to our sessions every week and after trying a couple of different therapists on here she is the only one I felt I had a strong connection with. I would recommend Mel 100%
Mel is amazing! I highly recommend her to anyone. I’ve been through 4 therapists before and none compare to her - she really is the best!
