About Us
At Sandstone Mental Health, our compassionate experts help individuals build resilience and inner strength through personalized therapy and supportive care.

Sandstone Mental Health originated from the long-standing passion of Madison Heydon and Shanley Melody to help individuals overcome their mental health challenges and reach their full potential. Both practitioners grew up in Reno, Nevada and are proud to be Battle Born. Madison and Shanley found their calling in mental health and dedicated their careers to helping those in need.

Throughout their careers, Madison and Shanley gained an abundance of experience working with diverse populations and a range of mental health disorders. Inspired by the need for a nurturing and a dependable therapy setting that customized treatment to each individual, they decided to take action. This led them to come together to launch Sandstone Mental Health.

The organization's name, Sandstone Mental Health, symbolizes their belief in the power of therapy to mold individuals into a solid and enduring structure, much like sandstone. They understand that the journey to mental health and wellness is not always an easy one, but believe that with the right guidance and support, anyone can overcome their challenges and achieve their goals.

As co-owners and fully licensed clinicians, Madison and Shanley offer  a unique combination of therapeutic modalities, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and spiritual practices to help their clients overcome various mental health issues, such as trauma, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, chronic pain related stressors, and grief.

At Sandstone Mental Health, the mission is simple: to empower individuals to achieve their full potential and promote growth and well-being through quality therapy and holistic care. The team is dedicated to guiding individuals on their journey to mental wellness, and is committed to helping each client to reach their personal and emotional goals.
