About Melinda…

LIfe’s relationships are one of the most challenging aspects of our existence. When they’re good, they’re great! And when they’re bad, they sap our strength. Learning how to navigate intimacy (in-to-me-see) to remove destructive forces and increase safety and connection is the secret to happiness and longevity. Imago Relationship Therapy provides the tools to turn conflict into opportunity thru positive dialogue, to promote healing and to secure the most intimate bond possible. No matter what the current circumstances are, you can find peace and ultimate connection with your partner with IRT, and I want to facilitate that process with you!
