(your) Mental Health Matters

Welcome. I’m Dr. Melissa Mork—and yes, I talk about death for a living.

As a clinical psychologist, professor, grief expert, and Certified Humor Professional (that’s actually a thing), I help people and communities navigate the unthinkable—whether it’s personal
loss, mass trauma, or the daily grind of high-stakes caregiving. I’ve coached grieving families,
trained trauma-exposed professionals, and keynoted auditoriums filled with people who’ve seen too much. My work blends evidence-based mental health strategies, deep compassion, and the kind of dark humor that gets you through the hardest days with your humanity (and healthy
sarcasm) intact.


You’ve probably landed here because you need help.


Maybe you’re a leader searching for the right speaker to talk about mental health at work. Maybe you’re a first responder or nurse trying to outrun burnout. Or maybe you’re a parent or
community member trying to make sense of something tragic and senseless. I offer keynotes, coaching, consulting, and courses that meet you where you are—with the tools, understanding, and yes, even laughter, to move forward. This is real help, rooted in science and steeped in lived
experience.

Let’s do the hard work—without losing ourselves in the process.

Whether you’re dealing with grief, trauma, or just really dark TikToks, I’m here to guide the
conversation with insight, warmth, and a healthy dose of humor. From TEDx stages to funeral homes, classrooms to command centers, I’ve spent my career helping people survive, grow, and
lead with courage.

When you’re ready—let’s talk.
