About us

Melissa Ko, MCP, RCC

Hi there! I’m Melissa (She/Her), a dedicated Registered Clinical Counsellor committed to creating a warm, nurturing, and playful environment. I am here to compassionately witness, listen, and support you on your journey to wholeness.

I am a passionate, creative, and curious trauma therapist, trained in EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and LENS neurofeedback, with a strong focus on attachment. My therapeutic practice also incorporates Jungian psychotherapy, and our sessions may involve art and movement alongside traditional talk therapy.

I deeply honor the interconnectedness of our sociocultural identity with our mind, body, spirit, and relationships, recognizing the profound impact of symptoms on overall well-being. Embracing a holistic and attachment-based perspective, I collaborate with clients to explore their relational wounds and experiences, helping to cultivate healing, self-expression, and self-compassion.

Together, we will navigate barriers to growth, unravel obstacles, and forge a path toward healing and personal development. I am excited to accompany you on this journey to transformation and clarity!

Outside of therapy, I enjoy ceramics, acrobatics, and dance. I also love spending time in nature and exploring new places with my partner and friends.

We work with clients in a highly collaborative and supportive manner to ensure your treatment plan is right for you.
