My name is Melina Alden, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LIC: 105722). I specialize in helping adults, young adults and teens struggling with anxiety, depression, family relationships, trauma, eating disorders, grief & loss, self-esteem, life transitions and much more. I use a mix of psychodynamic, humanistic and mindfulness techniques in my approach to therapy. 

My goal as a therapist is to help you live a more empowered and authentic life. I have a passion for helping others see and understand themselves more clearly while maintaining self-kindness and less inner judgment. I believe human relationships are nuanced and complex things that deserve time to be unpacked. I feel strongly that you are the expert on yourself, and that together we can work to better understand where your feelings come from, and what we can do to help lessen your stress, depression or anxiety.
