Training
I’ve been delivering training online and in-person for many years. It’s a special interest of mine and I feel very privileged to share my knowledge and insights and hear the experiences of others.
“Mel is such an amazing supervisor. Having had a bad experience with supervision before I was hesitant starting with someone new but it couldn’t be more different. Working with Mel has taken a load of the worry/mental load off especially when working with complex cases which push my knowledge. I feel more supported than ever and she is so knowledgeable I have already learned a tonne and am a much better practitioner as well as being kinder to myself as a result of our work together.”

Hi, I’m Mel - Registered Nutritionist
I spent a big chunk of my life hating my body and being afraid to eat. Over the years I've had a love/hate relationship with food - it was my best friend and my worst enemy. It had so much power over me (usually at the times I tried to control it the most!). It wasn’t healthy, and that’s quite hard to admit when the assumption exists that nutritionists have it all sussed.
So, here I am; taking what I’ve learnt through lived experience and blending it with my professional experience to provide you with personalised non-diet nutrition and counseling.
“Following Mel’s advice, mostly related to hearing, feeling and understanding the signs, I reintroduced new foods, tried new ones and modified my diet. She helped me to get the vitamins and minerals that I wasn’t getting before, just because of all the food I used to exclude from my diet. That gentle approach to food, to nutrition, to connect with your body, supported in science is a great combination that anyone could benefit from. Thanks Mel, our conversations and all that I learned changed my life.”

Burnout was first recognized in 1974. 15,000 studies and 45 years later (in 2019) the World Health Organization (WHO) added burnout to its International Classification of Diseases. They define it as an “occupational phenomenon” rather than a medical condition.
