I help trauma survivors to heal from the past so they can live their lives to the fullest. If you feel haunted by your past, ashamed of what you had to endure to survive, or unsure of who you truly are, you've come to the right place. I frequently work with folks who have left an oppressive religion, escaped an abusive relationship, or survived sexual trauma. You deserve to be truly free from what you have overcome. I would be honored to support you as you heal from the past, find and embrace your true self, and create your new authentic life.
I specialize in working with complex PTSD and dissociation, particularly as it arises from religious, relational, and sexual trauma. I am experienced in working with former Mormons to process, heal, and thrive after leaving. My clients say that I help them regain trust in themselves and my approach is warm, collaborative, and affirming.
As a former member of a "high-demand group" (the LDS Church), I know first-hand how isolating and difficult it can be trying to find yourself and to build a new life after leaving. And, as a trauma survivor, I also deeply respect what it takes to truly heal from the unspeakable. You don't have to face this alone. Reach out to schedule a consultation.

I would recommend Melissa to any client looking for a therapist with expertise in religious trauma and dissociation. I'm impressed with her ability to create a safe and understanding place for those deconstructing their faith.

I typically use a combination of talk therapy, "parts work", and EMDR with my clients. Sometimes you just need a safe space to share your story, and I would be honored to hear it. Other times, talking isn't enough. In those circumstances I use EMDR to reprocess trauma from abuse, betrayal, violence, and cult experiences.
