About Melissa
Melissa Campos is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Florida with 16 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues related to intimacy and sleep. She also helps with career questions, parenting strain, ADHD, and life changes common in young adulthood.
Melissa uses approaches that aim to be practical and straightforward. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and EMDR when appropriate. In sessions she focuses on skills you can use between meetings and on making sense of patterns that keep problems repeating.
Her style combines listening with clear strategies. That can mean tracking thoughts and behaviors, practicing grounding or mindfulness exercises, or working on communication skills for difficult conversations. For trauma-related concerns she may use EMDR techniques alongside other methods to address distressing memories.
Melissa speaks English and Spanish and has worked across a wide range of concerns over her career. She aims to help people manage practical day-to-day problems as well as longer-term patterns that affect relationships and self-image. She encourages straightforward goal-setting so progress can be noticed in everyday life.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and learning ways to act on them despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help when you feel stuck or unsure about next steps in work, study, or relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) involves a structured approach to process distressing memories and can be applied when trauma or painful events affect daily life.Deciding which approach to use is something the therapist and client figure out together. Melissa discusses goals and preferences in the first sessions and adapts methods based on what is helping. That collaborative planning means methods can shift as needs change rather than sticking to one fixed plan.
Session logistics and formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule - for example a shorter check-in can fit during a lunch break, or not using video may help when bandwidth is limited. Many people find it helpful to practice skills between sessions in their day-to-day life, which translates well to remote work with therapists and licensed professionals.
