CONVENIENT, FLEXIBLE, PRIVATE.
Online Therapy for Ohio.
Melissa LaCour, LPC
You deserve a therapist who actually gets it.
Online therapy for Ohio adults and families — from a counselor who meets you where you are.
Life doesn't always go the way we planned. Relationships get complicated. Old wounds resurface. You find yourself stuck — not sure who you are or where you're headed. If any of that sounds familiar, you're in the right place.
I'm Melissa LaCour, a Licensed Professional Counselor offering telehealth therapy to clients across Ohio. My work is warm, honest, and deeply personal — because that's the only kind of therapy that actually moves the needle.
Let’s do the work in a way that works for you.
Who I work with.
I work with adults, couples, families, athletes, and adoptees who are ready to do the real work of understanding themselves — and showing up more fully in every area of life.
-
Identity, attachment, grief, reunion, and the 7 core struggles adoptees navigate
-
Communication, conflict, intimacy, and learning how to truly connect
-
Career changes, loss, divorce, identity shifts, and major crossroads
-
The mental side of athletic performance, identity, and transitions
About Melissa
I'm a Louisiana-based therapist with a privilege to practice in Ohio — which means you get the convenience of telehealth with a counselor who brings real depth and lived experience to the work.
I'm an adoptee. I've navigated career changes, loss, and the kind of hard questions that don't have easy answers. I didn't become a therapist because I have it all figured out — I became one because I know what it's like to need a space where you can ask the questions that matter most.
My approach is warm and direct. I won't hand you a worksheet you could have Googled. I'll sit with you in the uncomfortable, challenge you where you need it, and help you build the kind of self-knowledge that changes everything.
Credentials: M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling | Licensed Professional Counselor | Trained in TF-CBT, Functional Family Therapy, Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), and Adoption Competency (C.A.S.E.)
How it Works:
Ohio families navigating adoption — you don't have to do this alone.
Adoption-competent therapists are rare. I bring both professional training and a lifetime of personal experience as an adoptee to this work. I understand the 7 core struggles — loss, rejection, grief, guilt and shame, identity, intimacy, and control — and how they show up across every stage of life.
I work with teen and adult adoptees, adoptive parents, birth parents, and anyone touched by foster care or international adoption. Whether you're navigating identity questions, attachment challenges, or the complexities of reunion — this is a space where your full story is welcome
