About Melissa
Melissa Adcock helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and life changes. She works with concerns like trauma and abuse, anger, career questions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and identity issues related to LGBT experiences. Melissa is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who practices from Colorado and brings 11 years of clinical experience to her work.
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent and what might help right now.
Background and approach
Melissa listens closely, asks clear questions, and helps people notice patterns in their thinking and behavior. Her approach blends client-centered care with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods when they fit.
That mix helps people build new coping skills, manage emotions, and set small, doable goals. Melissa draws on a broad range of past roles and settings. That background means she has seen many types of problems and knows different ways to respond.
She aims to tailor each session to the person in front of her rather than follow a fixed script. Practical matters are part of the process. Sessions can be video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Her practice emphasizes steady progress over time and working together to find what helps most.

Online support
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-centered therapy places the person’s experience at the center of each session. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what she hears, and helps you identify priorities and strengths. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. These approaches help with anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different techniques to see what fits. If something isn’t helpful, she will adjust the plan so the work feels useful and manageable for you.
Online therapy offers flexibility across several formats: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video visits let you use facial cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, tracking progress, or when written reflection helps you process emotions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still working on meaningful change.
