About Melakee
Melakee Nicholson is a Licensed Professional Counselor who blends emotion-focused and practical methods to help people facing hard moments. She draws on ten years of clinical work and a background in counseling and family studies. Her approach centers on understanding feelings and building useful skills for everyday life.
She aims to make therapy straightforward and steady. Sessions focus on helping people find calmer ways to handle stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with trauma, relationship or intimacy concerns, parenting strain, and challenges related to identity and mood differences. Melakee uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Those methods help people identify core emotions, accept difficult experiences, and try new behaviors that match their values.
She pairs that work with client-centered conversation to keep the process collaborative and respectful. Her training includes two master’s degrees in counseling and marriage and family work, and an undergraduate degree in environmental policy and biology. Melakee emphasizes practical steps people can take between sessions.
That might mean new ways to talk about feelings, short behavioral experiments, or clearer personal values to guide decisions. Melakee practices from Texas and offers several remote session formats. She aims to create a calm, steady space where people can work toward clearer choices and better coping.
People who want a direct, empathetic clinician often find this approach helpful.

Online support
Emotion and Action Online: Approaches that guide change
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong feelings so they lose some of their power to cause repeated pain. It can be useful for grief, intimacy worries, and patterns that feel stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small actions. It teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings while choosing steps that move them toward what matters. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and communication, and it helps people try new ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the plan collaborative rather than fixed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, quick coping reminders, and ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different lifestyles.
