Melissa Rymer is a certified recovery and divorce coach who works with survivors of narcissistic and emotional abuse — people who've been gaslit, controlled, and silenced by the people closest to them. As a survivor herself, she brings both lived experience and professional training to every session, helping clients understand what happened to them, break free from trauma bonds, and rebuild their sense of self.
Her approach is direct and compassionate — trauma-informed but action-oriented. She helps clients with safety planning, emotional recovery, navigating high-conflict divorce, co-parenting with a manipulator, and reconstructing their identity after abuse. She often works with women who feel paralyzed by fear or confusion about how to leave.
Melissa co-founded The Victim to Warrior Method with her husband John, a platform offering coaching, courses, a podcast, and a book series. She's a published author of a 7-book recovery series and has reached hundreds of thousands of survivors through her content and community.
