Melissa Mark, LPC

In my virtual sessions, I integrate person‑centered, existential, and trauma‑informed approaches to remain flexible and responsive. I previously specialized in eating disorder treatment and am now centering my work on trauma‑based modalities, including advanced training in RRP (Relationship Recovery Process) group interventions for childhood trauma developed by Amanda Curtin and Patrick Teahan.

My path to this work began early, shaped by personal experiences with trauma and disordered eating. That history led me to study psychology and earn my master’s in community counseling. I trained at The Meadows in Wickenburg, Arizona, later serving as a primary therapist and receiving extensive training in Pia Mellody’s Model of Developmental Immaturity. I’ve since supported individuals and families facing addictive and compulsive behaviors and specialized in eating disorder outpatient treatment at A New Beginning in Scottsdale, AZ. After moving to Flagstaff, I opened a private practice focused on trauma and eating disorder recovery. I believe everyone deserves a space to feel seen and supported, and my virtual counseling services offer compassionate, professional care wherever you are.
