Melissa Morrissette, LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Grief Informed Professional providing online grief therapy to individuals throughout Louisiana.

Conversations about grief and death deserve openness and honesty. In our virtual therapy sessions, I provide a calm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore complex emotions at your own pace. Whether you are coping with the loss of a loved one, preparing for an expected loss, or adjusting to life after loss, therapy offers space for reflection, meaning‑making, and healing.

At the heart of my grief counseling practice is the belief that no one should have to face loss or life’s final transitions alone. I aim to offer a steady presence as you move through this part of your journey. Healing often begins when people feel truly heard, supported, and accepted.

I earned my Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of New Orleans, with concentrations in Psychology, Sociology, and Health Promotion, and my Master of Social Work from Southern University at New Orleans. My education and clinical training have shaped a holistic understanding of the emotional, psychological, and spiritual impact of illness, death, and grief.
