Melanie Plant

Melanie Plant is an integrative psychotherapist with 15 years of clinical experience working with young people and adults. An Oxford University graduate, she began her professional life in education, an experience that informed her understanding of how central good mental health is to flourishing across all areas of life. She is accredited in the United Kingdom and has managed counselling services for both young people and adults, bringing a broad base of practical experience to her therapeutic work.

Her practice is grounded in the belief that people can grow and change and that meaningful connection with others is essential to wellbeing. Melanie aims to provide a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space where the hoped-for growth and change can take place, adapting her style to the needs of each person she works with.

Trained in a range of models and theories through integrative psychotherapy, she selects approaches that suit the individual requirements, circumstances and preferences of her clients. Her clinical experience covers managing stress, anxiety and low mood, relationship and parenting concerns, coping with grief and loss, and supporting people through significant life changes. Melanie recognises that taking the first step toward change requires courage and she offers steady support throughout that process.
