Hi there, I'm Melissa!

I'm Melissa Fontenot, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I help overwhelmed adults in their 20s to 40-somethings who want to feel more calm & confident in themselves, their relationships, and their careers. I believe that it's important to use compassion, respect, and integrity to develop a healthy therapeutic relationship.

My approach

I use an integrative approach that is based on each individual's needs. The therapeutic approaches that I mainly use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Trauma Focused, Motivational Interviewing, and Strengths Based therapy.

My focus

I work with young adults and millennial professionals who are struggling with anxiety, high stress, and low esteem. Whether you're juggling college life, navigating the early stages of your career, changing careers, adjusting to parenthood, learning how to date better, or simply trying to find balance, I'm here to support you.

My communication style

I start with understanding what challenges you are experiencing, and we will work together to put a plan in place to help you move forward. My role is to provide support and encouragement as you work towards your goals. I give you space to be heard and allow you to reflect on the changes that you want to make that align with your values.
