About Melinda
Melinda Labbe is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with two decades of experience. She takes an attachment-informed approach and focuses on helping people manage worry, depression, relationship strain, and other life stresses. Her style is warm and direct.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and practical. She uses talk and skills practice to help people notice patterns and try new ways of relating and coping.
Background and approach
Over 20 years she has worked with people facing anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and struggles with intimacy and self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges. Additional areas she addresses include abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, body image, and codependency.
Melinda draws on attachment-based ideas alongside client-centered, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, and emotionally focused approaches. That mix helps her tailor sessions to each person’s needs and goals. She aims to build safety in the room first, then teach tools for thinking, feeling, and relating differently.
Melinda practices in Florida and meets with people using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She frames therapy as a step-by-step process and helps people set realistic goals they can work toward between sessions.

Online support
Attachment-informed and skills-based work online
Melinda uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That perspective helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and learn ways to feel and connect differently.She also draws on client-centered methods that focus on listening and working from each person's goals, and on cognitive behavioral therapy which helps people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Client-centered work supports a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation, while CBT provides concrete tools for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Melinda will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning helps set small, clear goals and choose practical steps between sessions.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be easier when video is difficult, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options aim to make getting help more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
