Melissa Mee, LCPC - Therapist in Idaho

About Melissa

Melissa Mee is a licensed clinical professional counselor with nearly two decades of experience. She offers straightforward, down-to-earth therapy that aims to help people manage mood struggles, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions. Her manner is warm and practical, and she focuses on clear steps clients can use outside sessions.

Melissa draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy while keeping the work grounded in each person's life.

Background and approach

She listens first, then helps people find strategies that fit their daily routines and values. Sessions often include attention to thoughts, behaviors, and small experiments to test new ways of coping. Her background includes a bachelor’s degree from Cedarville University and a master’s degree from Liberty University, and she holds an Idaho LCPC - license ID LCPC-5144.

That training informs the tools she brings into the room, but she adapts the approach to each person’s goals. People contact her for a range of concerns including depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, relationship and family matters, anger, career questions, and caregiver stress.

She also addresses issues such as dissociation, post-traumatic stress, and life purpose when they come up. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through a mix of video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging. Melissa aims to help clients move toward practical change while honoring their values and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping during major life changes.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and respect. The therapist creates a nonjudgmental space and follows the person's lead so they can explore feelings and decide on next steps at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical skills to challenge unhelpful thinking and build more effective habits for mood and anxiety management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Melissa will collaborate with each person to pick techniques that fit their needs, goals, and daily life. She adapts methods over time based on how the client responds and what feels most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people talk face-to-face from home, phone sessions work when video isn't convenient, and live chat or text messaging can support ongoing check-ins or brief coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum while working toward goals.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
