Mindful Healing & Consulting, PLLC 119 4th Street South, Moorhead, MN 56560

"After wanting to go to therapy for so long, I am so glad I found Sarah at Mindful healing. From the first time I met her I felt comfortable, accepted, and cared for. She is supportive and helps me work through any struggles I am having while holding me accountable at the same time. I look forward to seeing her every week and always feel hopeful and heard when I leave! She has taught me many coping mechanism for anxiety and has truly changed my life!"

"I began working with Sarah at Mindful Healing in the Fall of 2021. Sarah is compassionate, empathetic, and most importantly for myself - a critical thinker. Sarah encourages reflection and problem solving, while offering supportive guidance and helping to outline a course of action between appointments. The clarity and stability I feel after my sessions with Sarah are the exact emotional help and support I was looking for when I began seeking therapy. I feel very fortunate to work with a professional as thorough and invested as her."

"Life is full of the mundane and of the unexpected. As a mom of 3 young children, I’d always been able to “handle” the general anxiety I have experienced throughout my adult life…until I found myself at a place where I couldn’t. From the moment of our first meeting, I felt a radiating warmth from Melissa. She immediately put my fears, my apprehension and my nerves at ease. I felt seen, heard and understood. I went in, needing to “unload” all the things I had shoved and ignored for so long, and Melissa helped unravel the patterns and find truths within the lies I was continually telling myself. Her extensive knowledge and background, coupled with her heart, makes you feel comfortable immediately. Melissa helps awaken awareness and self-compassion in her clients, and I am grateful for that. I truly feels like she listens and the conversations are fluid; she meets you where you’re at each visit. I’ve been taught tools for how to handle my anxious patterns through our work together and am learning to apply them in my daily walks. Melissa is an encourager and she leads you to ask yourself the tough questions in order to heal from within. I have recommended Mindful Healing to family and friends and will continue!"

"The first words that come to mind when thinking about Mindful Healing and Melissa Dahl are compassionate, open, and caring. Her light on earth is intended to ease/eliminate suffering for her patients, friends, and our greater community. Melissa’s formal counseling credentials along with her mindful self-compassion training and trauma training provide her with the breadth of tools to support each of her clients in the manner needed. Her vulnerability and life experience provide her with the “secret sauce” that makes her the most effective counselor I have worked with. Melissa is willing to ask the questions that need to be asked to start the healing process. In her work with children, she supports the development of language that helps reduce the stigma of families talking about how they are feeling. This has been a blessing for my family. My kids are able to feel their feelings and talk about them! I am so glad I have the tools to help them with their mental health. We are lucky to have a counseling practice like Melissa’s with the level of professionalism and generosity in the Fargo - Moorhead community."

"I started seeing Melissa at Mindful Healing over a year ago. I was struggling with self esteem issues. Melissa has helped me identify the core of these insecurities and overcome them. I am in such a better mindset because of Melissa’s gentle and compassionate approach. Her counseling has forever changed me for the better."
