Melinda Welker

A Certified Poetry Therapist (Candidate) and Expressive Arts Therapist specializing in trauma-sensitve approaches to individual, collective, and planetary healing and growth, my work focuses on assisting individuals, families, and global cultures to awaken from the perpetuation of trauma. Founding my work on the principals of transpersonal psychology and spiritual self-care, I bring an impassioned and experienced approach that aims to provide clients with the creative tools to transform life~ tools that help us relate better to others, build the life we want for ourselves, and cope with whatever inner complexity or spiritual curveballs life may bring our way. Through the ancient healing modalities of poetry, art, drama, music, and dance/movement blended with mind-body techniques such as creative visualization, guided imagery, mindfulness, and therapeutic touch as well as meditation, energy work, aromatherapy & essential oils, sound vibration in therapy, crystal/stone healing, and sacred breath work, my lifework aims to heal mind, body, and spirit and to help all of us reclaim hidden wholeness.
