About Melanie Bourke

I have over twenty-five years of experience in community mental health, treating individuals across the lifespan with a variety of challenges including chronic mental health problems, neurodivergence, and substance use disorder. My practice is informed by the Social Theory of Illness and my approach is compassionate, nonjudgemental, and collaborative. I provide holistic care, because the reality is there isn't one magic bullet- there are often multiple considerations to address in our effort to achieve optimal health. I believe that every person is worthy of connection, that our connection to others is imperative for maintianing good health, and this is what I strive for when I provide care. YOU are the expert, I am just the guide in your efforts to take the steps toward optimum wellness
