HELLO THERE…I’M MELANIE 

Get to know me…

After becoming a Registered Nurse, I met and married my husband, Matthew, who was in the Navy. We were stationed to Norfolk, Virginia where we raised our family of two children: a boy and a girl. I continued to have a desire to help others, particularly other parents, so I went back to college for my Master’s in Nursing and became a Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. I later completed the Doctor of Nursing Practice.

More recently I became certified as a Pediatric Mental Health Specialist due to the mental health crisis that was occurring post covid. Both my master’s and doctoral degrees were completed while working and raising a family. I wanted to “have it all.” And looking back, I did.

I was born and raised in rural northwestern Ohio, the youngest of five children. I had a great education in a public school and was advanced into gifted classes. I went to college at 17-years-of-age at Bowling Green State University, where I studied nursing. I always wanted to go into medicine, but my folks told me that they could not afford to send me to medical school.

I spent my professional life learning about and dispensing traditional Western medicine. Although I still advocate for the benefits of traditional medicine, there certainly is a role for non-traditional therapies that Western medicine has overlooked.

After over 30 years in healthcare, I found myself burned out and emotionally exhausted. This led to a quest to find holistic healing for both body and soul. As I worked to heal myself, I found within a gift to aid others in their journey toward improvement in their professional lives, personal lives, and health.

I worked with an energy healer and coach for two years, while obtaining certification as a Life Purpose Coach. I now enjoy working with individuals as well as groups as a life coach to help guide progress toward goals.

My sessions are tailored to your personal needs and may include consultation, life coaching, parent coaching, goal setting, professional development, burnout resilience training, relaxation therapy, guided meditation, intuitive readings and sharing of information regarding holistic practices.

These sessions in no way are substitutes for medical healthcare, mental health care, or professional counseling. Any suggestions or comments are not to be substituted for medical advice. No medications will be prescribed. There will not be a diagnosis or treatment plan.

The suggestions provided are to encourage you to reach your goals.
