Melissa is the author of, “Hurt, Healing, and Hope: Thriving Beyond Sexual Assault,” and journal companion, “Write, Heal, Thrive: A Transformative Journaling Experience.” Melissa knows firsthand the silence surrounding the topic of Sexual Violence. It was through the support of friends and family that she took the path of vulnerability to begin speaking out and supporting the healing journey of herself and others who have faced or are currently facing their trauma. Her mission along with Write, Heal, Thrive is to support healing and thriving in others via writing, journaling, and complementary practices. A portion of her book sales benefits rape crisis centers.
