About Melissa

Melissa Eugley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who concentrates on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, addictions, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and self-esteem struggles. She brings six years of clinical experience to work that emphasizes practical skill-building and emotional insight.

Background and approach

Her practice addresses a wide range of related concerns including communication problems, codependency, impulsivity, family of origin issues, and the aftermath of divorce or separation. Her style blends compassion with structured, evidence-based techniques to support clients as they navigate difficult life moments and work toward clearer goals.

Melissa uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and EMDR to tailor care to each person's needs. Sessions focus on developing coping strategies, improving emotional regulation, and resolving patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Based in Florida with active licensure noted in both Florida and Washington, Melissa offers therapy in English through a variety of online formats. She aims to create a collaborative space where practical tools and reflective work come together to promote recovery, resilience, and improved relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Melissa integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients tackle unhelpful thinking patterns and build values-driven action. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, stress, or problematic coping, while ACT supports accepting difficult emotions and committing to meaningful steps forward. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to ensure sessions remain grounded in the client's perspective, offering empathy and collaboration as a foundation for growth.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Melissa works with each person to assess their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting strategies so treatment feels relevant and practical. Together the therapist and client explore which methods best support symptom relief, improved functioning, or personal development.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in this work through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access consistent support from Florida-based licensure. The variety of formats allows for real-time conversation, shorter check-ins, or written reflection depending on what helps the client progress.
