About Melissa

Melissa Lee Parent is a combat veteran, international best-selling author, transformational life mentor, and multidimensional healer who helps people break free from the stories, beliefs, and patterns keeping them stuck. With a Master’s in Professional Clinical Counseling and deep roots in energy work, Melissa bridges the worlds of clinical psychology and intuitive healing to create custom, holistic experiences for each client.

She is a Master Reiki Practitioner, shamanic healer, energy worker, median, and trauma-informed guide. Her offerings include yoga, breathwork, meditation, mantra, and hands-on healing workshops for individuals, groups, and workplaces seeking transformation and nervous system regulation.

At the heart of Melissa’s work is the belief that we’re all seeking Moksha —
mōkSHə, or moke-shaw — the ultimate liberation and freedom.

Moksha is the release of attachments to outdated mindsets, painful stories, and inherited conditioning. It’s the unraveling of the “shoulds,” the shame, and the survival modes that no longer serve us.

Melissa’s journey through childhood trauma, military service, multiple deployments, sexual assault, and a near-death experience has shaped her understanding of what it means to truly heal. Her work is not performative—it’s lived. She has walked through fire, and now she helps others rise from their own.

With a grounded, compassionate, and no-bullshit approach, Melissa meets each client where they are. She blends clinical tools with intuitive guidance, incorporating therapeutic dialogue, plant medicine, sound healing, crystal work, essential oils, and energetic attunement to help her clients reclaim their self-love, personal truth, and internal power.

Melissa is the kind of coach you need to remind you of your power and inner child humor. She is an extremely helpful guide, filled with heart and gentleness, like a good friend your ancestors sent from above to support you. Her direct and comedic demeanor was exactly what I needed to harness and remember what to focus on internally when the world felt overwhelming. She taught me about giving less f*&@!s amongst other healing modalities to keep in my pocket in order to remain steadfast and true to myself and my hearts desires for living.

Melissa made me feel so seen, heard, and supported. She was gentle and nurturing as I struggled but able to be lovingly blunt when I was avoiding my own process. She taught me that it is not only safe to feel my emotions, but powerful — that I don’t have to run from myself anymore, and that I’m capable of rebuilding my life with intention. Working with her helped me understand my patterns, challenge the stories that were holding me back, and finally trust myself again. She creates a space where you can be honest, messy, vulnerable, and still feel completely accepted. For the first time in a long time, I felt like I wasn’t doing my healing alone, and that made all the difference.
