My aim is to empower you to meet your health and wellbeing goals and become your best self. I understand the importance of making balanced and realistic lifestyle changes and will work with you to ensure your goals are met whilst enjoying delicious food and creating a lifestyle you love!
I am a New Zealand Registered Dietitian, based in Auckland.
I have worked in the nutrition and food space for the past 10 years and have been lucky enough to work with people in the UK, Europe, Australia and back home here in New Zealand.
My nutrition passion lies in women’s health (especially perimenopause and menopause), gut health and lifestyle change.
Outside of work, you’ll find me exploring the outdoors with my two tiny humans, running (or more recently taking up golf lessons!), in the kitchen whipping up some delicious food or head down in a book.
I’m looking forward to meeting and working with you!
NZ Registered Dietitian, BSc Human Nutrition, Masters of Dietetics
My clinic is based at 30B Montgomery Ave, Belmont, Auckland.
(Please note my clinic has a few steps so it is not wheelchair accessible.)
I see clients in clinic on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Bookings are essential.

"It was very easy to make a booking and the information provided was very thorough. My consult was very helpful and I loved the recommendations and feedback in regards to some tweaks I could make to my diet. Looking forward to the follow up with Mel, so it keeps me on track." Kylee
"Melissa explained things very well and gave excellent advice that didn’t make it overwhelming. Even though it was a video consultation, Melissa was easy to talk to and listened to my concerns and questions and gave great advice on how to achieve my goals." Sacha
"After accepting that perhaps I’d just have to always live with gut issues and feeling uncomfortable, Mel was able to identify what was causing issues and why. The improvement in how I’m feeling is massive and I now feel equipped with the knowledge of how foods affect my body." Sophie
"Mel listened and empathised with where I was at and my priorities. Through her expertise I have gotten to know own my body more. This has felt liberating as I had been struggling with a recent diagnosis of PCOS and IBS. It no longer feels like my body is working against me." Monique
"Thank you for all your support and advice to better feed our family especially around kids and their intolerances. Mel you are always friendly and happy to share recipes, tips and tricks." Kylie

"Mel carefully analysed my diet and eating habits and came up with a number of suggestions of ways to improve it. I came away from our session together feeling highly motivated to make the changes she suggested. Overall my control of my blood sugar levels has improved. I have also lost many kilos as well without really feeling like I was missing out on anything food wise." Heather
"Mel was such a lovely person to work with and her support was truly appreciated." Anon
"Melissa was understanding, kind and encouraged me to focus on small sustainable changes rather than beating myself up for what I can’t do. It was very easy to make a booking and I would definitely recommend this service." Rachel
