Grief does not need to be healed, it is the healing itself.

Dr. Mia Hetenyi

I am an Autumn Woman Elder (A.W.E.)

I believe the journey of Peri/menopause is rEvolutionary, and a time of deep reckoning as we step onto the threshold of our ageing.

I understand the unique physiology and subtle unspoken language of a Woman’s body. I am a grief doula and shadow worker, breathwork facilitator and experienced somatic educator.

I also prescribe sound, evidence-based, natural medicine to support your whole health and I offer functional testing options too.

A 1:1 session with me is an opportunity to talk about your symptoms, grief, personal pain or anything that you're moving through. I use my skills as a Naturopath, Herbalist, Counsellor and Nutritionist to best support your health and vitality as a robust and fully expressed ageing Woman.

My lineage of Teachers & Trainings:

The Deep Feminine Mystery School - Maya Luna 

The School of Shamanic Woman-craft - Jane Hardwick-Collings

Decolonial Shadow-work - Dr Rosales Meza

Liberation Mystery School - Reverend Brianna Lynn

Spiritus Breathwork & Somatic Healing - Tim Morrison

Including my Bachelor of Health Science with a major in Naturopathic & Herbal Medicine which was only the beginning of what has become an indefinable medicine & wisdom I’ve come to know.

As a mum of 3 children, Mel was able to offer PRACTICAL solutions tailored to my specific needs. She educated me about the importance of nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, herbal medicine, and other natural modalities. With her guidance, I began to make significant changes in my diet and daily routine. Slowly but surely, I started experiencing positive and long-lasting shifts in my well-being.

In the spirit of authenticity, here's what you also need to know:

I’m not in the business of spoon-feeding programs, or before and after shots and brand hype. I don’t subscribe to company 'product-based’ protocols, quantum gidgets and gadgets or MLM (of any kind).  

In fact, your body is the technology I use.

I may recommend Functional Pathology Testing for certain conditions only if I feel it’s necessary. If you’re seeking restrictive food plans or harsh detox programs then I ask that you look elsewhere - they're not my focus unless directly linked to the core of my work.

It is only fair that I tell you so.
