About Chloe

Chloe Melka is a licensed professional counselor in California who helps people facing relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, anger, and self esteem concerns. She brings four years of clinical experience and focuses on helping clients build confidence and motivation. Chloe emphasizes strength and personal agency while guiding people through difficult changes.

She approaches work as a collaborative process and treats each person as the expert on their own story. Sessions typically focus on identifying strengths, setting small achievable goals, and practicing new ways of relating to oneself and others. Chloe offers straightforward feedback and practical steps clients can try between meetings.

Her background includes supporting people recovering from sexual assault and abuse, navigating infidelity, and managing patterns like codependency and jealousy. She also works with attachment issues, post-traumatic stress, and concerns tied to sexuality, including kink and alternative sex culture. Chloe pays attention to how guilt, shame, and impulsivity affect relationships and self-worth.

Clients meet with Chloe to rebuild self-love and healthier boundaries, to address anger or compulsive sexual behaviors, or to strengthen intimacy and communication. She encourages gradual progress and recognizes that small changes add up over time. Chloe aims to empower people so they can make choices that fit their values and goals.

People are invited to start by completing a short questionnaire that helps match them to a therapist. From there they can schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability and the subscription plan that best fits their needs.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Chloe uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful patterns in relationships and practice new communication and boundary skills through guided exercises and homework. This can be useful for issues like trust, jealousy, and conflict.

Another approach centers on processing trauma and the emotions that follow. It involves creating a steady pace for talking through painful experiences, learning grounding skills, and building safety around difficult memories. This method aims to reduce the power of traumatic memories over daily life and to restore more stable functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chloe collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adjusts the pace and techniques as progress is made, working together to try what feels most helpful.

For practical details about online sessions, please confirm available session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can also use video or phone tools to accommodate different needs, so discuss preferred formats when scheduling to find what works best.
