About

Melissa Gayle West, MS

I have over 25 years of experience helping women flourish after the heartbreak and upheaval of big transitions. Life transitions can be a times of deep transformation at all levels, so I have additional professional training in life coaching, spiritual counseling (many women in big change hunger to experience more of their own authentic spirituality), dreamwork, body-based awareness, and energy psychology. My approach with you is personalized, because everyone has different needs and different ways of exploring, learning, and healing. Most important, though, is that I listen clearly and compassionately to your unique story, and help you discover the particular meaning of your journey while clarifying the choices available on that journey. My job (and my joy) is to help you connect with your own wisdom and intuition. I've lived through some huge transitions, including life-threatening illness and divorce, personally experiencing both the confusions and tremendous creativity of big transitions.
