About me
Melanie has a friendly, warm disposition, welcoming you to meet in person in her private office in Marbella, Spain or online to talk about making life work for you now. She is passionate about seeing her clients leave her office with a changed demeanour, knowing that whatever challenges or mental health issues they find problematic, she is confident they will see positive change.
She has worked as a counsellor over the past three decades in faith-based environments bringing hope and change to peoples´ lives in a variety of life situations. She has at times used music and creativity to explore the process of healing.
Melanie is also a qualified Human Givens psychotherapist, a scientifically based approach using findings from psychology and neuroscience. This enhances her work with clients who bring a need for simple life challenges, to those with more complex mental health difficulties.
She holds the Spanish equivalent to DBS which allows her to work with children and the vulnerable. Presently she is unable to take any private insurance payments. As Human Needs Therapy is quick and very effective, with a solution focus, you can decide how many sessions you would like, depending on what you need to achieve.

Testimonials
DEPRESSION AND RELATIONSHIPS:
I had a life-changing event that rocked me as a 19-year-old. I went to Melanie for several sessions and they equipped me with the skills I needed for my road to recovery. A year and a half later I have achieved most of the goals I set for myself in her sessions. She was a ray of hope in a very dark time for me and I'm very grateful for the part she played in my recovery.
GRIEF AND RELATIONAL LOSS:
I went to see Melanie for a therapy session during a very difficult period of grief and loss. She guided me into making some changes and re-framing what had happened. I understood my part and the part others play in my life. It has been so transformative for me , using the new insights I have, I am now in a much happier, fuller space since seeing her and I am looking forward to seeing her again soon.
LIFE DECISIONS:
I recently had the privilege of working with Melanie Kettner-Borough on a confidential task, and I cannot express enough how profoundly impactful this experience has been. Despite our diverse cultural backgrounds, from our first interaction, Melanie's innate ability to connect transcended any boundaries.
What truly sets Melanie apart is her unparalleled combination of Christian love and exceptional talent. Her empathetic approach, understanding, and warmth broke down barriers that I didn't even realize existed. It was more than just professional support; it was a genuine connection rooted in compassion and an authentic desire to help.
The impact of Melanie's guidance on my confidential task was profound. She brought a level of insight and sensitivity that felt incredibly personal and deeply supportive. I am beyond grateful for our time together and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking not just professional expertise, but also a truly heartfelt human connection.
