Melanie Terrazas, AMFT

I am a champion for the power of a gentle nudge. I believe everyone has the capacity to change, especially with support. Using psychodynamic, behavior therapy, and Gottman Couples methods in her approach, I help teens, adults, and couples as they face challenges that get in the way of daily function – such as anxiety, depression, acculturation, life transitions, loss, parenting, body dysmorphia, and cultural inequalities. My goal is to demystify the therapeutic process and empower my clients to become active participants in their healing journeys. Outside of therapy, I love traveling and immersing myself in different cultures, getting lost in fiction, and exploring my creativity through photography, digital media, painting, and thrifting.
