About me
Hi. My name is Melissa. I am licensed in Florida with 24 years of professional work experience. Are you tired of not connecting with your partner? I offer couples counseling. As a solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, and reality therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true couples potential and join with you as you begin your journey to intentional change. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life with your partner. I work with couples to repair trust, improve communication, and strengthen their emotional intimacy with each other. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and determination. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Melissa Benson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Melissa has been phenomenal, an absolute pleasure to work with!
My therapy sessions with her have been very helpful.
She is really patient, helpful, caring and really helps us self reflect to be better together
Couples Counseling: So far...I have been so impressed with Melissa's ability to understand our conflicts quickly and to identify the root of the problems we are having. She is fair; exceptionally intelligent; kind; warm; and clearly committed to helping couples find common ground again. She has been masterful at giving us tools for ways to grow closer... yielding more joy; peace and intimacy. We both feel safe, heard, and optimistic. Melissa is a blessing to us.
She wonderful very intuitive and has a great grasp of issues that may or may not be apparent to the patient as they are to close to the problem to see simple yet major impacts small gestures or behavior changes can make it’s been both satisfying and educational to work with her.

Melissa has been great to work with. She is very experienced and was able to help my relationship with my spouse
Melissa is vibrant and makes sure not to take sides, even if one of you has the concern more than the other. She also has a lot of resources to share that makes your time outside of video sessions very supportive and still moving forward in progress!
Melissa has been tremendously helpful. She’s been very responsive, regardless of the time/day and I appreciate her direct , but loving guidance. I feel full confidence that she has both mine and my partner’s best interest in mind.
Melissa is a marvelous person first of all. She is intuitive to her clients needs and shows respect and toughness all at the same time. Her professionalism is amazing and I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is willing to work it.
We both felt like she took time to understand our concerns and help us make a plan to grow together. So grateful for the experience.
Wonderful lady! She really helped us with our marriage
Melissa is extremely sweet and helpful. I have been impressed with our therapy session so far!
Melissa has been great. She always listens and always responds in a timely manner. I really appreciate her professionalism. She doesn’t take side, and best of all, she would send some worksheets and have a goal. I really like her and recommended her with no doubt.
Good
Melissa is great
Melissa has been a great support for me in my journey to recovery and healing in my marriage.
It felt more like tasks and homework to complete rather than helping us solve our relationship problems. No conflicts were resolved.
