Michael d’Estries wrote about Melissa in May, and I had the occasion to interview her recently about this issue, and the field of eco-psychology. You can hear the interview at The Lindberg Report.

Melissa spent several years in the corporate world as a banking executive and trainer for a marketing firm. In an effort to sharpen her people skills, she went back to school and earned a Masters Degree in Counseling. Finding the field personally rewarding, she shifted her business emphasis from organizational development to private counseling.

Melissa has been in practice since 2000, and is President of Soulways Center for Conscious Evolution.
