About Melissa Ardelean

I am licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in the state of California. I offer late afternoon, evening, night, late night, and weekend sessions only. If you require later hours not seen on my schedule, please do contact me and I will do my best to accommodate. I provide a direct, open, unique perspective, and therapeutic approach, using evidence-based practices to meet my clients where they are at, and to honor their individuality. I partner with my clients, through the therapeutic process, to help them gain the tools and build the skills to meet their own needs, and accomplish their goals. I have extensive experience supporting clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, including immigrant family dynamics, severe and complex trauma, abuse, and interpersonal challenges with teens, young adults, adults, and families. I equally have supported with men’s and women’s specific issues, and understand the nuance of each of these respective experiences. I also have experience working with coping with life changes and adjustments. I believe that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming challenging life experiences, and building your resiliency, even if you may not realize it yet! You are powerful and capable, and you deserve to live a joyful life and move with more ease. Taking the first step, working towards a more fulfilling and joyful life, takes great courage, and I am here to support you in this process! **Please note, I am available to see clients through telehealth video sessions only, I do not provide text/chat therapy services**
