Work with Melanie
Thoughtful, evidence-based care for mental health, ADHD and gut health
Mel brings over two decades of in-clinic experience to her work in mental and gut health.
To provide the best possible care, Mel works only through consultation packages. This allows for a thoughtful, supported process that builds clarity and momentum over time.
If you’re feeling flat, anxious, overwhelmed, burnt out, or disconnected from your body — you’re not broken.
Often, these experiences are rooted in how your gut, nervous system, hormones, and brain chemistry are interacting. Mel offers evidence-led, neuroaffirming naturopathic care that supports mental health and gut health first, while also understanding how ADHD and neurodivergence can shape your lived experience. This is care that works with your body — not against it.
