We are a small group of St. Louis therapists who provide individual therapy to adults from 18 to 90+ in person and online. Our approach is warm and non-judgmental, and we use self-compassion, mindfulness, and other evidence-based approaches to treatment. We explicitly hold and practice multicultural, feminist, and inclusive values in our therapy work.
Contact our office today. We look forward to talking with you.
Mel Merlotti is a Licensed Professional Counselor and holds an MEd in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a Graduate Certificate in Social Justice in Education. Their approach is person-centered with the belief that clients want to have positive change in their lives and have the agency to make those changes. Mel pulls from several different evidence-based practices to help tailor the session to the client’s needs. They are trained in Level 1 Internal Family Systems and can incorporate this technique into the session. They also focus on the mind-body connection and mindfulness techniques with clients. Mel is proudly sex positive in their approach to therapy, especially dealing with relationships and identity.
