Melissa Foster
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT
Last Updated 30+ days ago
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and an Art Therapist. I help clients create healthier patterns in life and improve relationships.
My areas of emphasis include abuse, trauma, anxiety, academic stress, depression, divorce, grief, self-esteem, and personal growth. I am also trained in EMDR.
My approach is warm, respectful and caring. I work collaboratively to create a safe, accepting environment for expression to help empower clients to create more balance, meaning and joy in their lives.
