Women’s Therapy & Counseling
Melissa Lester, LCSW
Women’s Therapy & Counseling
For almost 25 years, it has been my privilege to specialize in Women’s Therapy & Counseling.
You are more than the sum of your roles
What and who are on your “To Do” list? Are you on your own "To Do" list? Is it time to include yourself?
Why Women’s Therapy & Counseling?
Women’s burden in society is great. Society often expects that we put others ahead of our Selves.
Melissa Lester, LCSW
As a therapist and counselor specializing in working with women since 2005 (licensed in GA since 1998), I am deeply committed to helping you achieve your personal and professional goals through the life-changing work of therapy. So, whether you are new to therapy or ready to embark on a deeper experience than words alone can offer, I look forward to connecting with you.
If any of the following stressors resonate with you, we may be a good fit for the work you have in mind.
- Women’s Issues
- Trauma Resolution
- Family of Origin Dynamics
- Emotional Eating Disorders
- LGBTQ | Coming Out Later in Life
- Relationship Conflict
- Career Challenges
- Anxiety, Depression, and Stress
My therapy approach is a combination of psychodynamic talk therapy and body-focused distress resolution methods. These include:
- Meditation and Mindfulness
- EFT Tapping | Acupressure
- Hypnosis (Hypnotherapy)
- Progressive Counting
- Other Somatic approaches

Where to
begin?
It’s likely you’ve already begun asking yourself some life-changing questions. And that means you’ve already begun the process of building a better relationship with Self. The work of therapy begins when you realize you want to get “there” – even if you have no idea how or where “there” is. Reaching out to a qualified therapist you connect with is often the next step.
Working therapeutically with women gives my life tremendous meaning – and that includes women of all abilities, ethnicities, races, religions, sexual orientations and more.
I look forward to working with you. Please email me at melissa@melissalesterlcsw.com.
