Welcome here, I’m Melissa
After my varied personal and professional experiences, I believe God provided me the opportunity to become a life coach. Through Ashes to Blooms, I assist individuals successfully get into relationships, exit relationships, and deal with the aftermath of relationships.
My clients say they are so grateful for how their relationships shift in ways they never thought possible. They truly appreciate my ability to purposefully listen, offer accountability, and give honest feedback.
After navigating my own divorce, coparenting journey, & remarriage of 12 years with a blended family, trust me when I say I truly “get it.” I’ve discovered through my own personal trials that you can make it through and experience joy on the other side.
My Christian faith and belief in God are central to my life and the way I coach for clients who wish to incorporate it into their sessions. However, it is not a prerequisite to work with me — I embrace clients from all different backgrounds and faiths who don’t wish to incorporate Christian faith into their sessions.
My coaching approach is straightforward — I will tell you the truth. I am a highly efficient problem-solver. I don’t just tell you what to do, I invite my clients to collaborate in the process to achieve their desired outcome.
I bring a range of professional experience, from over 30 years working as a nurse, to over 6 years clinical experience in therapy, to 5 years as a dispute resolution provider for the courts.
