Melanie Sharp

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW-C), with a Clinical specialization in Michigan, with over 17+ years of experience working as a therapist/social worker. My mission is to provide a full-spectrum of counseling services to address issues throughout the lifespan from childhood, adulthood and thru the end of the life cycle. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, the aging process and self-esteem challenges. I desire to provide caring, empathetic and goal-oriented care in a supportive environment. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and motivational interviewing. I will support our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to advocate for, and support, you.

Let’s Take This Journey Together! I look forward to working with you!

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether virtual therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the way that feels most comfortable, choosing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine.
