Malissa Egan, LCSW

Hi there! I'm the founder of Valor Healing. Before I became a therapist, I served 10 years in the Air Force as Security Forces (police).

I changed careers because I learned that people don't ask for help for a lot of good reasons. It's important to have someone out there who gets it and doesn’t treat you like a checklist.

My clients come in with a range of problems, & leave feeling inspired & deeply connected to themselves. Our work together will be creative. We will go on a journey to explore & heal the depths of you.

I promise it’s not as scary as it seems! Some say this journey feels spiritual. Many are surprised at how fun it is and can’t wait for our next session!
If you feel ready, I'd love to help you break your old ways and truly love yourself and your life.

Please take a look around and reach out with any questions. If you’re curious about working together you can book a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation.

I help people just like you struggling with:

​

Past Trauma

Toxic Relationships

Repeating Cycles

Anger, Rage, Aggression

Self-Sabotage

Inner Child Wounds

Self-esteem & Self-Worth Challenges

Stress, Burnout, & Overwhelm

My Style

I am authentic, compassionate, easygoing, and supportive. My clients get comfortable quickly. I won’t push or pressure you to do things you don't want to do. I honor your pace and readiness. I view you as the expert in your life and understand that you know what’s best for you.


I customize the best matching and most effective interventions to leave you feeling confident that your growth and healing will withstand life’s challenges.

​

I began practicing therapy in 2021. I spent my post-graduate years as a clinician at a non-profit community mental health clinic providing short-term therapy to post-9/11 veterans and active military. Due to the short term nature of the services, I learned to be very efficient and effective. 


I've helped individuals break lifelong toxic cycles and heal trauma wounds resulting in reconnection with their true self, purpose and passions.

​

I've helped couples overcome betrayal, infidelity, relational abandonment, and disconnection, resulting in feeling closer than ever before.
