Hello! I’m Melissa.
I am a certified and trauma-informed Life coach on the Reflections team. I am a Certified Mental Health Coach(Soon to have a certification in psychology) as well as a Gottman level 1 and level 2 certified (Couples/relationship work) and an E & M certified coach. (Enneagram Coach) I am also a Kid Coach. I love working with children and having the honor to hear their big thoughts and hearts.
Have you ever had that overwhelming feeling that it is time for change? To create forward-focused goals? To heal from past wounds? To learn to live intentionally and be proactive in your journey?
Being our best self is a marathon, not a sprint. I am honored to sit with my clients and offer a safe place to identify so many of life’s triggers, struggles, hurts, and wounds. You were created with passion and a purpose and I would love to work with you to find out what that means for you.
Many of us are in survival mode. We are held back by past lies, shame, guilt and hurt. I don’t want to see you just survive, I want to see you thrive!
My passion is to give you tools to move forward. Two questions I would love to ask you are, “Where do you see yourself a year from now?” and “What is your greatest fear in the situation you are in and want to work through?”
My desire is to help you find answers to these questions and achieve your goals. There are many monsters we are up against in life. I want to show you that you can defeat the monster! Just like David did when he was up against Goliath. With one single stone, faith and God’s leading!
In my free time I am a mom of 4, ages from 25-12. They keep me busy. Faith, fitness, and nutrition are also a big part of who I am. Another passion I have is women’s self-defense. I am very honored to be an instructor on a local team here in town.
God has placed a burning passion in my heart for people. I have my own trauma and wounds I have worked and walked through. I desperately want you to know your true worth. Your past, no matter what it looks like, does not define you. You are NOT what others may have labeled you as.
Boundaries are a huge point of reference that I often touch on in my sessions. I say, “Boundaries are a foreign language most of us haven’t been taught. We must learn to speak this language fluently to create a healthy life for ourselves.” To most, boundaries mean conflict, loss, rejection, and abandonment. I want to change that perspective with you.
It is such a joy to watch my clients find their authentic self and fall in love with who they are. I love working one on one, with couples and children.
Sessions can be offered in the office, on zoom, FaceTime or phone calls. Whatever is best for you.
“The process is the most beautiful part”
I look forward to meeting with you!

I love sharing my story and my "WHY" to women who take the Self-Defense Class. I have the honor of being on the team and it is something I am passionate about.

Every Self Defense Class has a graduation night where the women are attacked and have the opportunity of putting into practice what they have learned. I love to empower them before hand.
