About me
I'm Melissa, and for over 25 years, I’ve been walking alongside people who feel stuck in stress, anxiety, or a sense of being lost and unmotivated in life. I have been trusted by clients such as the Google Team UK, Airbus, and the UN EU.
My journey began in mental health nursing (RMN), and over the years, I’ve enhanced my skills with various tools, including Counselling Services (Level 7), Relationship Coaching, and EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) counselling, also known as tapping. I combine counselling, relationship coaching, therapy, and tapping to help you release what’s weighing you down — allowing you to feel calmer, lighter, and more in control again.
Imagine being able to let go of the emotional weight that keeps holding you back — the stress, the limiting beliefs, and the patterns you can’t seem to break. That’s exactly what EFT is designed to help you achieve.
I understand that choosing who to work with comes down to trust. I focus on clear communication, honest expectations, and consistent follow-through so you always know exactly where things stand. My clients trust me because I treat their goals like my own.
If you’re ready to breathe easier, sleep deeper, and feel more like yourself again, I’d love to support you on that journey with my mental health coaching.

- Registered Mental Health Nurse
- Relationship Coaching and Level 7 Counselling Diploma
- Registered PTLSS Tutor
- Diploma in Nutritional Therapy
- EFT Accredited Practitioner
- SCENAR Therapist
- ITEC in Massage
- BACP Safe Provision of Online Counselling - Open University Course

5 Reasons to work with me
1️⃣ Struggling to Heal on Your Own
You’ve tried to tackle the issue yourself, but something feels out of reach—a blind spot you just can’t see. Sometimes our challenges are too close, tangled up with our fears and identity, to fully understand alone. This is where **counselling services** can provide the support you need.
2️⃣ The Pain Feels Too Big to Face
Some experiences—trauma, grief, or fear—can feel overwhelming to navigate alone. With the guidance of an experienced **EFT practitioner**, you can face these feelings safely and make real progress.
3️⃣ Avoiding What’s Holding You Back
You know it’s there—a fear, grief, or past trauma—but you keep putting it off. With a little help from **mental health coaching**, you can gain perspective, uncover the root cause, and release what’s keeping you stuck.
4️⃣ Lingering Anger or Resentment
Even if you feel mostly at peace, anger or resentment toward someone may remain. These are often hidden aspects you haven’t yet identified. I can help you uncover, process, and release them through effective counselling services, freeing yourself from old emotions.
5️⃣ Feeling Stuck on Your Goals
Do you want to achieve your dreams but can’t figure out what’s holding you back? By identifying inner blocks, limiting beliefs, and past experiences with the help of an **EFT practitioner**, you can move forward with confidence and clarity.
