Melissa Anderson

*Not Accepting Clients at This Time

I love people. I love to see them succeed and to cheer them on when they do. I love to offer encouragement or lend a listening ear when times are tough. As a counselor, I believe I have a unique opportunity to show my clients compassion and understanding as they walk through their personal journeys. It is an honor to walk alongside my clients during their difficult times and offer them the support they seek.

Education and Licensure

I received my undergraduate degree from Oklahoma Christian University and my MA in Professional Counseling from Liberty University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. Additionally, I am a CSAT (Certified Sex Addiction Therapist).

Professional Philosophy

Using a Person-Centered approach, I tailor each client’s treatment to meet their specific needs, believing therapy should be a collaborative effort between therapist and client to be most effective. I enjoy counseling from a biblical perspective but respect every individual’s right to their own belief system, offering Christian counseling upon client request.

Experience and Specializations

I have a wide variety of experience working with adults, couples, and groups. While I address a range of issues, I am particularly passionate about helping those with mood disorders, such as bipolar disorder, and I believe it is possible to live a healthy and full life with this condition. I also specialize in working with individuals affected by betrayal trauma due to sex/pornography addiction or infidelity not associated with addiction, offering professional guidance to help navigate these challenging experiences.

Personal Background

I am happily married to my husband of twenty-five years, and we spent 22 years as a military family in the United States Air Force. We have three children, ages 23, 21, and 16. In my spare time, I love singing with the worship team at my church and spending time with family and friends. As a follower of Jesus, I believe I am called to help others by allowing them to feel truly seen, heard, and understood in the innermost spaces of their lives.
