About Melody

Melody LeVane is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of clinical experience. She works mostly with adults and focuses on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting concerns, relationship strain, and anger. Melody writes plainly and spends sessions helping people notice what keeps them stuck and try new ways of responding.

She trained with a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology and has spent years working with a range of adults and some adolescents. Her work is trauma-informed and draws on both mind and body approaches. That means she pays attention to feelings and to how stress shows up in the body.

Melody blends techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside mindfulness and narrative work. In practice this can mean tracking thoughts and behaviors, trying small experiments, and using brief mindfulness exercises to manage intense feelings. She uses a collaborative style - she listens first, then helps set practical steps for change.

Sessions focus on clear, doable skills rather than abstract theory. For people coping with anger this may look like learning new ways to notice triggers, slowing responses, and repairing conversations afterward. For issues like addiction or compassion fatigue she helps people identify patterns and rebuild routines that reduce strain.

Outside of work she enjoys cooking, crafts, and time with family and four rescue dogs. Melody aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so clients leave with tools they can use between sessions.

Therapeutic methods and how online sessions work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that fit their values. It is useful when anger feels tied to rigid rules or stuck patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. In anger work CBT helps identify triggers, test automatic thoughts, and practice different responses. Mindfulness therapy offers short practices to steady attention in the moment and reduce reactivity. These practices can make it easier to pause before reacting and to manage strong emotions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods collaboratively, adjusting techniques based on what helps in real life. Clients and the therapist decide together which exercises and skills to prioritize, and that plan can change over time.

Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They also let people practice skills in everyday settings and bring real situations into sessions for immediate problem solving.
