About Melody Hatter

Melody Hatter invites people to invest in themselves and affirms that they are worth the effort. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a Clinical Social Worker (CSW), and a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW), and she holds licensure in Texas, Iowa, Colorado, and Utah. Currently based in Texas, she earned a Master of Science in Social Work from The University of Texas at Arlington in 2014 and holds an undergraduate degree in Applied Gerontology.

Her professional background includes work in inpatient psychiatric settings and emergency departments, providing care to adults ranging in age from 18 to 95. She has used therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reminiscent Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy among other approaches to help people manage depression, anxiety, addiction and substance use concerns, grief, and suicidal ideation. Motivating individuals, couples, and families to engage in meaningful change is central to her practice.

Melody focuses on helping people remain connected to their communities and avoid hospitalization when possible, drawing from an extensive toolbox of skills that she shares with those she works with. She is known for a genuine manner that becomes apparent from the first meeting, and she encourages clients to develop practical coping resources and new perspectives that can restore energy and purpose in daily life.

She does not provide faith-based therapy or prayer during sessions; those seeking faith-integrated care are encouraged to find a therapist with a seminary background. Melody cares deeply about the work she does and is accepting new clients who are ready to begin.

Licensed professionals offer a variety of therapeutic styles and approaches, and clients may change therapists at any time if they would prefer a different fit. For many people, remote therapy provides accessible, consistent support that complements other aspects of life and wellbeing.
