About
Melissa Monahan is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Arizona with 3 years of experience in the behavioral health field. She most recently worked with individuals facing substance use challenges who are involved with the criminal justice system - many of whom also experience anxiety, depression, and traumatic life events that have influenced their continued substance use.
Melissa works from a client-centered perspective and collaborates in ways that help each person feel at ease. She maintains a relaxed, nonjudgmental approach and avoids labeling people. Her clinical work incorporates motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral techniques to address troubling thoughts and to strengthen confidence in finding workable solutions to difficult problems.
She encourages clients to draw on their own knowledge about what will work best for them, offering guidance toward resolutions that fit each individual situation. Melissa holds an Arizona Licensed Professional Counselor credential (LPC-16205) and supports clients through the sometimes-daunting first step of beginning therapy.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?
Many people wonder whether remote counseling can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person treatment for most people facing these challenges. One major benefit is flexibility - you can meet with a therapist in the format that suits you best, whether that is a video appointment, a phone call, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and if you decide you would prefer a different fit you are free to switch to another therapist at any time.
