Testimonial for Melissa Duenas-Witter
Melissa Duenas-Witter is - without exaggeration - a master of her craft, and I cannot imagine going through the process without her. Melissa meets her clients wherever they are in the process, and knows how to support them in just the right way at just the right time. She is a well-boundaried, honest, and direct communicator that genuinely cares about her clients and their wishes, and fights for them whenever necessary. She wields a unique level of credibility with hospital staff and care providers, and in turn, they look at her as a valued member of the team - often consulting with and even deferring to her in acute decision making. Using her intuition, knowledge, experience, and faith, Melissa guides her clients through one of the most magical adventures life has to offer, leaving them feeling embodied, empowered, and profoundly fulfilled. She is a rare combination of completely neutral and fiercely loving; she has a way of presenting options and facts without any personal opinion, and then can give you the best hug when the choices feel overwhelming. She knows how to care for both partners, their children, family, and friends; as a husband, I can say that I grew immensely in large part due to Melissa’s support and objectivity. My words don’t do her spirit justice, but I hope they inspire you to bring her into your life.
