Biography

Raised in Australia, Mellick completed her first degree in English language and literature at the University of Queensland.[4]

She developed graduate studies in transpersonal psychology, as founder of the Creative Expression[5] philosophy program, at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (ITP), in California (renamed Sofia University).[6][7]

Mellick's research has included dreams,[8][9][10][11][12] creative expression[13][14][15][16] for personal growth and development, and Pueblo Indian art and artists.[17][18][19]

Mellick and Marion Woodman collaborated across several decades, starting in the 1990s; they led retreats[20] and co-authored publications.[21][22]
