About Melissa

With over 25 years of experience in the behavioral health world, Melissa has just about seen it all—and still believes deeply in people’s ability to grow, heal, and surprise themselves. Recently certified in Neuropsychotherapy, she loves exploring the beautiful crossroads where mind, body, and spirit all meet. She helps clients uncover how trauma can show up in both emotional and physical ways (and how healing one often helps the other).

Melissa enjoys working with all kinds of mental health and substance use challenges. Her style is relaxed, real, and maybe even a little funny at times—but don’t be fooled: she’ll hold you accountable when it matters.

In session, you can expect a creative mix of Person-Centered Therapy, Motivational Enhancement Therapy, Positive Psychology, and good old Cognitive Behavioral Therapy… with just a sprinkle of “woo-woo” for those who like a little extra sparkle in their self-work. 

Melissa is the owner of Melissa Armstrong LLC.

Hobbies: Reading, writing, journaling, plants, crystals, and paper crafting.
