About Melanie Meik

I’m Melanie, I am studying for a degree in humanistic and integrative psychotherapy with the Sherwood Psychotherapy institute and Staffordshire university , about to embark on my third and final year of study.

I believe that we are all unique, that each of us has had a different experience of life and I seek to allow my clients to bring their experiences into a space where we can work together through whatever it is that may be troubling them.

I believe in the transformational value of therapy, of working relationally and at a pace that works for each client in a safe space, a place to pause, explore, discover understand and grow.

I absolutely love being part of the Cudox family, a team of passionate, compassionate therapists offering access to therapy for anyone who needs it, whatever their situation in life.

'During a challenging period, it was the first place i felt able to talk and be listened too - allowing me to feel better and valued'

'After many years of seeking help, I finally found a counsellor through Cudox who was and is fantastic as hat she does and would recommend to anyone'

'I can see progress in how i can reflect on things and approach things with a clearer and logical mind'

'I don't think I would have got through this without my counsellor. Her kindness, gentle tone and understanding have helped me so much. She is a wonderful person'

'The counsellors are really understanding and connect with the people who are involved. Also the progress from day 1 has been good and helped me progress with my mental health. It is highly recommended'

'I am really pleased i started with Cudox, it really is the best counselling i've had ever'

'I am so thankful to be able to talk to my counsellor, she has seen me through so much and I have gained more confidence in myself. People should use this service if offered, it works and I am so grateful how far I have come today'

'I feel without this help and ongoing support I would have ended up trying to take my own life'

My counsellor is the first person in my 36 years mental health battle that has listened to me without judgement. I couldn't have wished for a better therapist'

'Words cannot describe how much counselling has changed my life. I needed support but wasn't sure in what capacity. From my first session I felt seen and heard in a whole new way and it opened up so many things to explore.

'My counsellor really cares and provides the vital safe space in which to open and share the delicate and fragile contents of an extremely complex broken heart and mind'
