Practitioner record · Checked 7 Nov 2026
Melanie Roserie has been in practice 20 years and is licensed in Maryland. Melanie lists stress, Anxiety, family conflicts and trauma and abuse among 25 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Melanie's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Melanie works with
Melanie lists 5 specialisms and 20 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Melanie chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Melanie's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I'm a therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. Over my career, I've worked with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and self-esteem concerns, helping them build resilience and find their way forward.
My approach is grounded in understanding the complexity of human experience. I specialize in supporting clients through family dynamics, relationship communication, grief from divorce and separation, and the unique challenges that arise in blended families. I also have deep expertise in trauma recovery, including sexual assault, domestic violence, and post-traumatic stress.
I'm particularly passionate about supporting women through life transitions-including pregnancy, childbirth, fertility concerns, and navigating women's issues. I also work with military personnel, veterans, first responders, and those balancing workplace challenges alongside personal growth.
My work centers on helping you reconnect with self-love, explore your life's purpose, and move through guilt and shame with compassion. I believe in meeting you where you are, honoring your unique identity and experiences, and creating space for authentic healing.
I'm committed to providing culturally responsive, trauma-informed care that recognizes the intersections of your identity and lived experience. My goal is to walk alongside you with genuine support and respect as you move toward greater peace and purpose.

03 · What happens next
Melanie practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Melanie's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Melanie at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Melanie is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Melanie.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Melanie actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Melanie's - Melanie has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“With 20 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.
