I would highly recommend Melissa Tower as your therapist, whether you are an adolescent navigating your way through the troubling times of teen years, a young adult needing direction and clarity, or a middle aged or older adult who needs a trusted and professional individual to process life events or offer a mental health tune up as needed. Melissa is compassionate and nonjudgmental. She is practical, and challenges irrational thinking in a kind and nonthreatening manner. Melissa has assisted our family through grief, anxiety, depression, and devastating medical diagnoses. Additionally, she has provided life guidance to the adolescents and young adults in our family and helped them develop into confident and appropriately assertive individuals who better understand themselves and other. I have nothing but the highest regard for Melissa, and I am completely confident in her abilities as a life coach.

Thank you (Melissa) for always being there for me...year after year. You have no idea how much of a difference you make in my life and how a simple phone call with you can fix so much.
Nichole, AL

I can't express how thankful I am for having you to help guide me through some of the darkest times of my life. Without you (Melissa) I would not be here, and I can never repay you for that. All I can do is say thank you and continue to do what I can to stay healthy. I appreciate all your time, thoughtfulness, expertise, knowledge, caring, compassion, and love that you have shown me.

Healthy and loving relationships with family, friends, and Jesus Christ, are the cornerstone to a happy and productive life. Knowing this can be very different from actually living this. Melissa has been blessed with the ability and understanding to meet you where you are and help guide you to where you desire to be. Relationships are not necessarily about being in the room but more about being in the moment, learning and growing. Melissa has the ability and desire to connect with others and it is her life's work. She has blessed the life of my teenage children and my entire family with her compassion and professional knowledge. We will forever be grateful.
