Melissa Stahl

Melissa Stahl, LPC, LMHC, is a licensed clinician practicing with eleven years of professional experience across Florida and Missouri. She works with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, self esteem and confidence, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, and grief. Her scope also includes work with issues related to intimacy, eating, parenting, bipolar conditions, and compassion fatigue.

Her additional focus areas list a broad array of relational and identity matters such as abandonment, attachment and dependent or avoidant personality features, blended family and divorce issues, codependency, communication and control concerns, infidelity, isolation and loneliness, and questions about life purpose. Melissa approaches each case by recognizing that needs differ and by aligning attention to the particular patterns and goals that individuals bring.

She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring dialog and a treatment plan to the unique circumstances of the person seeking help. Taking a first step toward change is acknowledged as an act of courage, and she offers support through that process while adapting the work to what each person identifies as most important.
