If you’re struggling with stubborn health challenges, like unrelenting gut issues, high anxiety, or chronic insomnia, and conventional methods haven’t provided relief, it might be time to look deeper. I am a Naturopath and Public Health Nutritionist aiming to help you identifying the root causes of your health concerns and restore balance. I use an evidence-based approach which sometimes includes diagnostic testing (including DNA, blood, and stool analysis) to gain a clear understanding of what is happening for you. I provide targeted health support, often using herbal medicine and clinical nutrition to correct underlying issues and move you toward lasting well-being. As a parent of four, I also understand the unique challenges of whole family health and have a special focus on supporting the wellbeing of neurodivergent adults and children.

My clinical approach is also shaped by my experience in research and education. My education interest has led me to be a content contributor in the development of Naturopathy, Nutrition, and Integrative Medicine degrees at both undergraduate and master’s level. My research has focused on maternal and child health and breastfeeding, and I have worked and collaborated with leading organisations, including the Public Health Association of Australia, the Australian Breastfeeding Association and the Naturopathic and Herbalist Association of Australia.

I believe in a collaborative approach to wellness. If you are ready to find the underlying causes of your health imbalances and make lasting changes to improve your quality of life, I’m here to help you on your journey.

Melissa is available on Friday from 10am till 7pm
