Working as a therapist for trauma patients Melanie has developed a repertoire of tools to catch thoughts before it spirals out of control. 

As an avid mindfulness practitioner, her practice revolves around compassion - even to the inner critic. 

She offers compassion to the inner critic by saying - "I know you are trying to do the best for me"
