*Telehealth Only*

Seeking support and guidance during challenging times is a natural part of life. As an experienced mental health professional, I am here to help you navigate trauma, daily stressors, and other personal difficulties. Remember, seeking help doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you. We all face struggles at some point in our lives, and reaching out for support is a positive step towards well-being.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider (temporary) in Tennessee, working towards full licensure. I specialize in Brainspotting, CBT, eclectic, and trauma-focused therapies. I am affiliated with Watershed Co-Op group practice, offering telehealth services to support you.

I work with individuals facing a range of issues, including sexuality, sexual addiction, OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and more. Having someone to talk to and process emotions with can be beneficial for anyone. I welcome the opportunity to support you and help you navigate through your challenges.

Melissa Bond, LPC TEMP

pre-licensed professional counselor

Are you ready to release what no longer serves you to allow room for what you do want from life? Time to address the wounds, heal the hurts, and resolve the past? If so, I'd love to connect and assist you on your healing journey. Sometimes stress, traumas, and life can stifle the communication between mind and body. We will identify patterns, blocks, and strategize ways to embrace and expand your strengths. I utilize various experiential therapies to cater to the individual. Every person is unique, and I adapt treatment to accommodate your changes and growth. I facilitate release, somatic practices, hypnotherapy, and women's group.
