Welcome
I'm pleased you've found your way here.
If you're seeking a holistic, compassionate approach tailored to your unique needs, you might just be in the right place.
I’m Melanie Rivera — a BACP-registered Integrative therapist and Wellbeing Coach, working with adults online nationwide and in-person in Dorset. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in emotional patterns, or simply want to reconnect with yourself, I offer a grounded, supportive space where healing and clarity can begin.

What I offer
Many clients come to therapy unsure of what they need—just knowing something doesn’t feel right.
​
That’s okay. Together, we’ll take time to gently explore your inner world and uncover what feels important or unresolved.
​
My approach combines humanistic and integrative therapy with coaching, trauma-informed tools, and practical support. You’ll be met with empathy, honesty, and space to go at your own pace.
​
​​"You don't have to have it all figured out.
We can begin wherever you are."
​
​​​​Warm Regards,
Melanie Rivera
