Melissa Kummer Dague

LPC-S

One of the reasons I became a counselor is because I’ve always believed that no one should have to walk through life’s hardest moments alone. During some challenging times in my own life, therapy has made a big impact on my ability to navigate and find peace. Over the years, I’ve seen how powerful it is when someone has a safe place to be heard and understood. Counseling gives me the privilege of walking with people through some of their most difficult times, and finding the road to healing together.

The first session is all about getting to know you—your story, what brought you in, and what you’re hoping to feel or achieve. We’ll move at a comfortable pace and talk through symptoms, history, and goals so we can build a roadmap for your treatment. I’ll explain the therapeutic process, answer any questions, and make sure you feel comfortable with the direction we’re heading. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and confident that you’re not doing this alone. And of course, we’ll only go as deep as you’re ready to go.
