Hi, my name is Melissa Henbest. I am a therapist and psychometrician. I use a multimodal and customized approach for each patient, utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques. I specialize in working with emotional based disorders, with an emphasis on trauma work. I sought specific training to work with patients who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and utilize Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to alleviate trauma symptoms.

In addition to therapy, I work as a psychometrician under Dr. John Wolfe, and conduct neuropsychological testing for elderly patients.

My academic achievements include a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Master of Science in Applied Psychology, and a Ph.D. candidate in Clinical Psychology from Walden University. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Idaho and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Washington.

I look forward to working with you.
