Melanie Squire is a dedicated clinical social worker and therapist who brings a wealth of experience to her practice at Freedom Counseling. Her expertise spans from addressing minor concerns to tackling complex issues, as she is part of the non-military division of the Military & Veteran Counseling Center. This background enables her to effectively support individuals facing challenges such as combat trauma, torture, sexual assault, anxiety, addiction, and depression. With advanced education and specialized training, Melanie guides her clients to uncover the root of their difficulties, facilitating meaningful progress in their lives. She also embraces work with couples and children, as every struggle matters in her practice. Research indicates that a significant majority of single-incident trauma victims experience relief from PTSD after just three sessions, and outcomes are equally promising for those facing multiple traumas. Melanie believes that just like a warrior can acknowledge the need for assistance, so too can anyone else seeking change in their lives. Areas of focus include depression and anxiety, grief and loss, addiction recovery, domestic violence, relationship issues, trauma/PTSD, sexual trauma, and readjustment challenges, along with support for the LGBTQ+ community.
