Grief doesn’t come with a manual, but if it did, it would probably say: “Warning—may cause crying, confusion, heartache, and the urge to hide under a weighted blanket.” 

In Laugh? Cry? Yes., clinical and forensic psychologist Dr. Melissa Mork guides you through the rocky terrain of grief with compassion, clarity, and a little bit of humor. You’ll explore the many forms of grief, the tasks that help you heal, and practical ways to cope when your world feels upside down.

Blending science, storytelling, and just enough levity to make the journey feel survivable, this book shows how resilience grows, how humor heals, and how meaning emerges even in heartbreak. Whether your grief is fresh, complicated, or long-carried, Laugh? Cry? Yes. offers a steady hand, a gentle laugh, and a reminder that you are not alone.

Melissa Mork

Dr. Melissa R. Mork is a clinical and forensic psychologist, professor, and internationally recognized speaker on grief, humor, and the beautiful absurdity of being human. With more than two decades of experience helping people navigate loss, trauma, and life's "Are you kidding me?" moments, she combines research-based insight with the kind of compassionate wit that makes even hard truths feel lighter. 

She is the author of Laugh? Cry? Yes., the presenter of the TEDx "Dead Serious," and provider of critical incident grief triage to survivors, families, and communities after mass shootings. When she's not teaching, writing, or speaking, she can be found drinking strong coffee, looking for her phone, and trying to keep her houseplants alive.
