Education and career
Born and raised in Brisbane, Australia, Mellick graduated from Somerville House and completed her first graduate degree in English Language and Literature at the University of Queensland. After moving to the United States, she earned her doctorate in clinical psychology at the Psychological Studies Institute, California (since closed), and completed a post-doctoral internship in the Department of Psychiatry at Stanford University.
She became a leader in the development of graduate studies in transpersonal psychology, as founding director of and senior lecturer in the clinical psychology doctoral research program, at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (ITP), in California (renamed Sofia University).
At ITP, Mellick proposed the addition of a sixth area to the core curriculum: creative expression.[8] This addition was ratified in 1990. Under her Directorship, the creative expression curriculum offered doctoral and masters level studies in the use of the arts for psycho-spiritual development. Mellick was a founding member of the International Expressive Arts Therapy Association (IEATA),[13] and developed the ITP creative expression curriculum[14] and program to align with all requirements for REAT certification (Registered Expressive Arts Therapist).
Jill Mellick and Marion Woodman collaborated across several decades, starting in the 1990’s. They, together with other facilitators, led women’s retreats; they co-authored publications, and produced a recording.[15][16][17]
Personal life
Jill Mellick’s mother, Letty Katts (1919–2007)[18] was an award-winning Australian composer and pianist. She composed the Australian ballad, "Never Never".[19] Another of her ballads, "A Town Like Alice", was released in conjunction with the film of the same name.[20] Mellick's father, Stanton (John Stanton Davis) Mellick (1920), OAM, ED, was originally a pharmaceutical chemist. He earned his doctorate in English Language and Literature for research on Henry Kingsley. He became a Senior Lecturer and researcher in the English Department, University of Queensland, and has published several books on Australian literature.[21]
