Meet Melissa Wight, Clinical Intern |
With nearly twenty years of experience in the mental health field, Melissa has witnessed the profound power of sitting with someone—listening, witnessing, and holding space for whatever they carry. From supporting adults living with chronic mental illness to working as an education assistant with young children, Melissa has cultivated a deep empathy and respect for the resilience and humanity in every person.
Currently completing her Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Trinity Western University, Melissa works from an Emotion-Focused Therapy lens, believing that healing begins in the small moments of safety, recognition, and connection. She offers a non-judgmental, affirming space where clients can explore life’s challenges and move toward greater self-compassion and self-acceptance.
Melissa welcomes individuals of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences, creating a safe and respectful space for all.
