The Origins of MellaHealth

MellaHealth was established by Ivy Patt, PhD, who, during the pandemic, sought a way to offer essential counseling services to the many people suffering from mental health conditions during highly uncertain times.

Ivy has over 20 years of experience in clinical psychology with a specialization in utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for the treatment of anxiety, depression and other mental health disorders.

Mella, short for Meliora, the Latin word for ‘always better’, serves as the foundation for the treatment we offer our clients.
