Ready to start your Wellness and Confidence journey and embrace a flourishing life with Mentor Mel Empowers? 

Licensed Therapist and Certified Trauma-informed Self-care Coach

Mel B

Greetings! I'm Melissa Buckley, also known as Mel B. With a decade-long career in mental health, I embrace my role as a licensed clinical therapist in Illinois. 

Flourished Life is my baby. It's my private practice which doubles as a safe space for both me and my clients. I specialize in working with millennial females, providing unconditional support and empowerment in a judgment-free zone. 

Fun facts about me:

  • My self-care includes board games, ample sleep, setting boundaries, and embracing humility.
  • I can recite the alphabet backward in under 10 seconds.
  • My vision board features travel, beach visits, outdoor adventures with my cat sons, and the dream of living full-time in a 5th wheel camper with my husband.
  • I enjoy using colorful language, much to my mom's occasional dismay.
  • Proud cat mom to three sweet but stinky orange boys.

Join me on this transformative journey toward self-discovery, genuine connections, tough love, and a life filled with purpose. Explore Flourished Life for empowering mentorship, self-discovery, and a way for you to find and live your best, unapologetic life!
