HOW MANY HOURS OF YOUR DAY ARE CONSUMED BY THOUGHTS OF FOOD, YOUR BODY, OR DOUBTING YOURSELF?

IT IS MY JOY & HONOR TO SIT WITH YOU IN DEEP CONNECTION & WITNESS BUILDING YOUR MEANINGFUL LIFE.

Welcome friends, I'm Bobbie Shae Melton, LPC. You can call me Bobbie! I bring high empathy + conviction, a side of quirkiness, and a splash of lived experience into the therapy room. I leave with bits of wisdom from each client that collectively serves my future clients. I am rooted in proven therapeutic approaches to heal your relationship with your mind, body, and food. I am flowing in flexibility to fit your individual path, values, and needs. I invite you to bring your uncertainties and fears to a non-judgmental space, and freely explore the path to your desired life.

I work with guys and gals age 16+ who are:

  • Struggling with a complicated relationship with body, food + exercise

  • Never feeling good enough + highly self-critical

  • Always anxious with uncontrollable worry thoughts

  • Feeling down, depressed + directionless in life

  • Constantly stressed out + overwhelmed by daily life

  • Never feeling content in life + questioning your purpose

YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, I HAVE ANSWERS.

  • Here are some styles, approaches, and philosophies that come with me into the therapy room.

    Skills-Based Therapy

    When life is hard, we need hands-on coping skills in the moment to help us through. I’ll teach you skills from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) so you never feel empty-handed when life gets stormy.

    Practice-Based Therapy

    We won’t just talk about getting better, we will practice in real-time. Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP) allows us to practice making contact with discomfort and forming a new and more skillful relationship with your internal experience so you don’t have to feel held back from all that life has to offer.

    Body-Based Therapy

    Your mind and your body are not two separate things, fighting against each other. Your body talks to your mind through your nervous system. I’ll guide you through body movements and skills to have a regulated nervous system and help you learn to feel at home in your body using Polyvagal Theory.

    Anti-Diet Philosophy

    Diets don’t work, and your body was never a problem to be solved or fixed. Therapy with me means prioritizing healing your relationship with your body over fixing your body. All bodies are good bodies and worthy of trust and compassionate care.

  • I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Texas A&M University - College Station (2012), and a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas A&M University - Central Texas (2018). I previously worked at an eating disorder treatment hospital with clients and their families seeking inpatient and outpatient care for their eating disorder. I've worked in other care settings as well assisting high school students navigating life transitions, and community mental health. In my past work life, I worked as a litigation paralegal at a law firm for about five years before returning to school to pursue my counseling career. I’ve been in private practice serving clients since 2021.

  • Yes I do! If bringing your faith into the counseling room is important to you, I can be of support on your journey. If you are exploring your faith, wanting to strengthen your spiritual beliefs or practices, or simply want to talk with a counselor of Christian faith, I’m your gal. I’ll let you set the pace on how much or how little you’d like to incorporate spirituality into therapy sessions.

  • I host sessions Monday - Thursday from 9am to 4pm. I do not at this time offer evening sessions or Friday sessions.

    I am accepting new clients currently for August, 2026!

    Please reach out if our schedules align!

“I knew from day 1 that Bobbie was my ideal therapist.”

She is compassionate, non-judgmental, humorous and truly a safe place to land. I had been stuck in disordered eating cycles pretty much my entire life, but with Bobbie I’ve been able to develop strategies and actionable plans to get me out. She makes things as radical as self-compassion feel workable! Each session has brought me insight that has truly made a difference in my journey to better myself. Thank you Bobbie for all that you have done for me!
