Rising Hope Counseling, led by Melissa Kelley, is dedicated to providing a transformative therapeutic experience that aims to lift clients from feelings of being stuck or trapped in despair. With a focus on creating a safe and supportive environment, Melissa partners with clients as they explore past experiences and their impact on the present. Through this collaborative journey, clients can identify and challenge false beliefs, gaining clarity about their true selves and rewriting the negative narratives that linger in their hearts. Melissa’s approach to counseling emphasizes emotional resilience, helping clients peel back layers of their life's events to uncover hidden beliefs that may contribute to feelings of worthlessness or failure. With particular expertise in handling issues related to Sexual Abuse, Trauma, PTSD, and Relationship Issues, she utilizes various therapeutic methods, including Attachment-based, Trauma Focused, and EMDR techniques. For those with a Christian faith background, there is an opportunity to integrate faith into the healing process, recognizing Christ as the ultimate source of healing. Above all, Melissa respects each client’s unique beliefs and circumstances, ensuring that therapy is an inclusive and empowering journey.
