MA, LMFTMelissa Pavlik MA, LMFT
She/Her/Hers Licensed Marriage and Family TherapistEducation
Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy - St. Mary’s University of Minnesota
Bachelor of Arts degree in Child Psychology - University of Minnesota, Twin Cities
Clinical Approach
Everyone comes to therapy for their own reasons. Often someone is feeling stuck and struggling to see their options, tired of doing the same things. I am passionate about meeting clients where they are in their process, providing a safe space to collaborate with them to discover options and create new ways to be. I believe when given the space, people will move towards growth as they acknowledge their needs. Throughout your time in therapy, we can explore your experiences, past and present, and work towards doing things differently, whatever that means for you.
I work from a strength-based, trauma-informed, systemic approach. My experience working in high schools brings a unique experience working with adolescents, as well as, with teachers. The areas I work with are anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and recovery, family issues, attachment, life transitions, parenting, issues of adolescence and identity development, gender and sexuality, and self-acceptance.

Clinical Approach
Therapy is a powerful tool that benefits clients in vastly different ways, depending on the desired outcome. Elizabeth’s goal is to bring clients into an emotionally safe environment, where they work together to identify problematic patterns and delve into healthy coping skills, which will ultimately bring about opportunities for personal growth and healing. Elizabeth integrates skills-oriented modalities with Narrative, Attachment, and Relational theories to understand clients’ needs from origin through healing.
Exploration in the therapeutic process is limitless and some common examples Elizabeth may explore in therapy with clients include anxiety, depression, perinatal mood and anxiety concerns, client relationship with their body and/or food, self-esteem, adjustment disorders, attachment issues, perfectionism, over thinking & worrying, decision making, grief & loss, relationship issues, and life transitions.
On a personal note, Elizabeth enjoys being outside, whether it be gardening or camping, hiking, or walking around her neighborhood and nearby lakes. Elizabeth values travel for the purposes of exploration, developing skills, creating memories, or the sheer whimsical nature of being somewhere new.
