Welcome to Dragonfly, a therapy practice specializing in the unique struggles women (and girls) face in today's society. 

One of our main goals is to help therapy be less daunting and more accessible. We strive to balance being clinical with being human, recognizing that the relationship we build with you is often one of the most important pieces of the puzzle.

We are women too...we get it!  We understand that life can feel overwhelming—whether you're struggling with crippling self-doubt, difficulty navigating relationships, deciding what is next for your life, or simply feeling stuck with where you are.

You don’t have to navigate it alone.  

Many young women and teen girls come to us feeling lost in the pressure to be “perfect”—to succeed in school or work, to fit in socially, or to maintain relationships that don’t always feel healthy.  Anxiety, self-criticism, past trauma, or life transitions can make it hard to trust yourself and find balance. You might be questioning your worth, feeling unheard, or struggling with emotions that seem too big to manage. ​

Let us help.

Every woman faces a world full of expectations and pressures —

it takes courage to pause, reflect, and choose a new path forward. ​

Sometimes we need to give ourselves permission

to change direction and move ahead more authentically.

We would be honoured to walk alongside you as you

find your voice & own your story.

​​Hi, I'm Melissa & I am the proud founder of Dragonfly Psychological Services. 

 

I created this practice in 2017 as a result of seeing a great need for specialized services for our female population.  Women, and girls, face unique expectations and can struggle navigating the current world we live in.  At Dragonfly, we provide personalized and evidence-based psychological care for women and teen girls who are ready to grow, heal, and thrive.  

It is my belief that therapy can be productive and effective without feeling overly clinical, and we work to provide a therapeutic environment that is warm, inviting, and authentic every single day.  

Above all, we work to connect with our clients on a deep level because we know that through connection, lasting, beautiful change can occur.

We’re here for you and ready to help.

"The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world, symbolizes change and change in the
perspective of self realization; the kind of change that has its source in mental and
emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life."
