About Melody
Melody LeVane is a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 15 years of clinical experience. She works mainly with adults and brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions. Melody keeps language simple and focuses on what will make life feel better day to day.
She earned a master's degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Mary Hardin Baylor and has worked across a range of settings. Her background includes supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and parenting challenges, addiction, chronic illness, and life transitions.
Background and approach
Clients can expect straightforward care rooted in real-world skills. Melody draws from Narrative approaches alongside cognitive and mindfulness-based methods. She helps people tell the story of their lives differently, notice unhelpful patterns, and practice new ways of responding.
Work in sessions often mixes reflection, practical exercises, and gentle body-awareness techniques. Her style is collaborative and strength-focused. She aims to create a calm space where clients can explore what matters to them and try out changes without pressure.
Melody emphasizes small, doable steps that fit a client's day-to-day life. Outside of work she enjoys cooking, crafts, and time with family and four rescue dogs. That down-to-earth perspective shows up in sessions, where the goals are usable tools and realistic hope rather than perfect outcomes.

Online session options
How Narrative and Mindfulness Work Online
Melody uses Narrative Therapy to help people revisit the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships, making space for alternate meanings and new choices. This approach can be useful for grief, relationship strain, identity questions, and life changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify values and take committed action despite difficult thoughts or feelings; it supports work with anxiety, depression, and chronic stress. Client-Centered Therapy provides a warm, listening foundation where the client sets the pace and goals while the therapist offers empathy and practical feedback.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Melody will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. She adapts methods over time so sessions feel useful and grounded in what the client needs most.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging make it possible to touch base between longer appointments or fit therapy into a busy day. These options give flexibility so therapy can move forward when life is full.
