Meet Melissa Fontenot, LPC, CRC - Anxiety Therapist in Texas

Welcome and thank you for visiting my website! I'm excited to meet you where ever you are on this journey. I believe that therapy is a valuable investment to becoming a healthier version of yourself.

My hope is that you feel a safe space for you to explore your potential when we meet.

My professional experience includes 9+ years of counseling people from various backgrounds who have struggled with depression, anxiety and panic disorders, trauma, chronic stress, anger issues, and therapy for professionals who are adjusting to disability and/or career changes.

My personal experiences with life transitions have allowed me to gain perspective of how challenging it can be to navigate life as a young adult. I've also done my own personal work to overcome those challenges, and I continue to work on myself.

I believe that it’s important to continue learning about ways to improve my skills so that I am offering the best services to my clients. 

Aside from being a therapist, I’m a Christian, a wife, mom, and I love to travel to explore different cultures. I was raised as a Military brat, and I'm the middle child to 2 Caribbean parents. Houston, TX has been my home for the last 20+ years.

I believe in a personalized approach to therapy, recognizing that each individual is unique and deserves a tailored treatment plan. My goal is to help you to gain insight, and develop the tools you need to live in alignment with your values. I use a holistic and collaborative approach that includes techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Mindfulness. I’m also able to provide counseling from a Christian perspective.

• Individualized Care: Recognizing that no two individuals are the same, I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs and preferences.
• Collaborative Exploration: Therapy is a collaborative process, and I'm here to support and guide you as we explore your thoughts, feelings, and goals together.
• Practical Strategies: My goal is to equip you with practical tools and strategies that you can apply in your daily life, fostering lasting positive change. 

Embarking on the path to self-discovery and healing is a courageous step, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
