Melissa Legge, therapist at Open Book Therapies

Warm, practical therapy that fits your life.

Therapy doesn't have to feel stiff or clinical. My approach is collaborative and practical — we can make sense of what is happening, understand where patterns may have come from, and build skills that actually fit your life.

I'm Melissa Legge, MSW, RSW, a Registered Social Worker providing individual and couples therapy in Calgary and virtually across Alberta.

What it's like to work together.

Warm & Real

Sessions feel like a place where you can be honest and fully yourself — not a place where you need to perform or have the right words ready.

Practical

Insight matters, but so does knowing what to do with it. We'll build tools and strategies you can actually use outside of session.

Collaborative

You know yourself best. We'll work together to figure out what feels useful, what fits, and what helps you move forward.

Evidence Informed

I draw from evidence informed approaches including EMDR, skills based therapies, attachment work, somatic approaches, and Gottman informed couples therapy.

You don't need the right words to begin.
