Overview
Melita is a compassionate and nurturing naturopath who deeply values the importance of treating the person, not just the condition. She takes a holistic approach to healthcare, focusing on ensuring her clients feel truly heard, seen, and cared for throughout their healing journey. With a strong belief that health is individual, Melita creates a safe, non-judgmental space for her clients to explore the underlying factors impacting their well-being, from lifestyle and stress to dietary choices.

Through a careful and personalized approach, she helps clients understand the interconnectedness of body systems, empowering them to make informed choices that foster long-term health and vitality.
Melita is a degree-qualified naturopath and a member of the Naturopaths and Herbalists Association of Australia, Melita’s extensive career background includes a unique 14-year career in the hairdressing industry, where she honed her ability to connect with clients on a personal level. Her experience as a hairdresser has given her insight into the impact of environmental factors—such as chemical exposure and chronic stress—on both physical and mental health, further informing her holistic approach.
Melita completed her Bachelor’s degree in Naturopathy in Melbourne, after relocating from her hometown of Rockhampton, Queensland, in 2017. Post-graduation, she worked for three years with a leading probiotic company, where she gained invaluable knowledge of gut health and its vital role in overall wellness. Her work with probiotics enriched her understanding of how the gut interacts with other organ systems, as well as well as the various strains of probiotics and their therapeutic benefits.
Now back in her hometown of Rockhampton, Melita enjoys spending quality time with her family and friends. She can often be found crocheting on her egg chair with one of her two fur babies sitting on her lap, tending to her herb and vegetable garden, or exploring the outdoors on weekend adventures.
Currently, Melita offers online naturopathic consultations, making her services accessible to clients regardless of location. Through her online practice, she continues to support individuals in their health journey, providing guidance that nurtures both body and mind.
