About Melakee
Melakee Nicholson, LPC, blends practical talk with reflective exploration to help people find direction in hard moments. She frames sessions around what matters most to each person and focuses on clear steps people can try between meetings. She draws on existential ideas to look at meaning and choice, while using cognitive behavioral tools to address unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients notice difficult emotions without getting stuck, and attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns.
Background and approach
Melakee has a decade of experience working with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and grief. She also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strains, career questions, and challenges such as ADHD, eating issues, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. Her approach aims to be practical and human rather than technical.
Sessions are conversational and goal-directed. She listens for what’s most urgent and then collaborates on steps to reduce distress and build skills. Clients often leave with small experiments to try between sessions that target thinking, behavior, or communication.
Melakee earned two master’s degrees in counseling and human services from Liberty University and holds a B.S. in Environmental Policy and Biology. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and provides care in English. Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Melakee combines Existential Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support people facing life transitions and emotional pain. Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, choice, and how people respond to life’s limits, which can help when someone feels stuck or uncertain about direction. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills to notice painful thoughts and feelings while moving toward chosen values and goals.She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns shape current ways of relating. That approach helps when communication problems, trust issues, or patterns of closeness and distance cause repeated conflict or pain. Melakee works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s needs and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as the work unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so therapy can fit into busy lives. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when typing your thoughts helps, and all options make it easier to schedule around work, caregiving, or travel.
