Melissa Macdonald, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been in practice since 2008. I provide individual and couples therapy services to adults in a warm and compassionate manner. My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative, viewing my client as the expert in their own life and as a partner in the therapeutic process. I emphasize each individual’s strengths and empower them to build their most healthy and authentic self.
I earned my Master’s Degree in Social Work, with a concentration in family-centered practice, at the University of Georgia. I have provided therapeutic services in a variety of clinical treatment settings, including inpatient psychiatry/detox hospital, residential substance abuse treatment, and in private practice.
