About Melissa

Melissa Mee is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Idaho with 19 years of experience. She focuses on mood disorders, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, family concerns, and caregiving strain. Melissa also works with issues such as grief, low self-esteem, anger, career stress, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach blends practical skills with listening. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) alongside a client-centered stance. Sessions look at patterns of thought and behavior, and also at what matters most to each person.

Melissa aims to help people manage symptoms and build coping tools they can use day to day. She offers straightforward strategies for stress, mood shifts, and recurring negative thinking. She also addresses the fallout from trauma, relationship tensions, and caregiving demands.

People working with her can expect a direct, down-to-earth style. She focuses on concrete steps such as skill practice, values-based choices, and small behavior changes. Progress often involves trying techniques between sessions and reviewing what worked.

Her background includes a bachelor’s degree from Cedarville University and a master’s degree from Liberty University. She is licensed in Idaho as an LCPC and conducts work in English.

How sessions work

How Melissa’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking action toward those values while accepting hard thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and finding direction after major life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the link between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It uses practical exercises and skill-building to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood disorders by changing unhelpful thinking and habits.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to each person's concerns without judgment. It supports people who need a steady, respectful space to talk through painful experiences and make decisions about next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Melissa treats approach choice as collaborative and will help figure out which methods best match a person’s goals and preferences. That may mean using ACT ideas one week and CBT exercises the next.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. She will discuss practical scheduling and what works best for the client when arranging the first appointment.
