Melissa Schenker is best described as a practical work-oriented counselor. Alternatively, she can be thought of as a career advisor or career coach. She received an MBA from MIT, and has worked in the private/public sectors and non-profit sectors often as a member of the company’s Board of Directors. She has been a worker bee and a manager and a solo-prenueur. She has been trained in a few forms of psychotherapy (IFS, Hakomi, healing trauma) and she has a long relationship with Buddhism and spirituality. She also has a niche expertise in the practical aspects of living and working with narcissists and can help specifically with that.
