Dr Melinda Kohr

Licensed Psychologist

“I have worked in private practice for over 30 years . I enjoy working with individuals and couples.”

About Me

I offer a thoughtful, confidential space for individuals and couples to explore their concerns. With extensive experience, I help you gain clarity on long-standing patterns. We also develop practical ways to navigate complex feelings. We work together to foster understanding, whether you're addressing personal growth or enhancing relationship dynamics. This grounded approach is ideal for those seeking lasting change and deeper connection.

Approach

My sessions balance steady structure with flexible pacing to help you notice patterns and try new ways of responding. In my Selbyville office, English-language appointments move at a pace you set, with clear goals, brief between-session exercises when helpful, and attentive care for trauma or emotional safety. When assessment clarifies attention, mood, or developmental concerns, I translate findings into practical steps we test together and adjust as needed. This collaborative, practicable style tends to suit adolescents, young adults, individuals and couples seeking steady, lasting change.
