Where Uniqueness is Celebrated
Where Uniqueness is Celebrated
Are you or a loved one neurodivergent, navigating a world that doesn't always understand or accommodate your beautiful differences? At Melanie Hanson Therapy, we celebrate your uniqueness and offer an untraditional approach to therapy that's tailored just for you.
My Approach: Embracing Neurodiversity
We believe that neurodiversity is a gift, not a diagnosis. Our untraditional therapist, Melanie Hanson, has made it their life's mission to help neurodivergent clients thrive, not just survive. With a deep understanding of the vast spectrum of neurodiversity, Melanie offers a safe and accepting space where you can be yourself, quirks and all.
What Sets Us Apart
Unconventional Methods
Traditional therapy may not resonate with everyone. That's why we offer a refreshing alternative. From nature-based sessions to pop-culture based narrative therapy, we tailor our approach to your unique needs and preferences. Your journey to self-discovery shouldn't feel like a one-size-fits-all solution.
Collaborative Relationship
At Melanie Hanson Therapy, we don't just talk at you; we listen. We believe in co-creating your therapeutic journey, taking your insights and feedback seriously. Your voice matters, and together, we'll discover the best strategies for your growth and well-being.
Strength-Based Focus
Instead of pathologizing your neurodivergence, we emphasize your strengths. We'll help you harness your unique abilities and channel them into a powerful force for personal growth and achievement.
Holistic Approach
We recognize that your neurodivergence is just one facet of your complex self. Our therapy considers your mind, body, and spirit, promoting overall well-being and balance.
