In this workshop, you will learn how to get the relationship you really want. A detailed approach to consciously relating to others, as well as a step-by-step approach to identifying your intimacy capacity.

Heal your most important relationship - the one with yourself.
In this course, you will learn to focus your energies on those parts of yourself that deserve the same level of attention and care you give to others - this evolutionary healing begins with you and will spread to everyone around you.
This is definitely for you if...
- You constantly put other people's feelings, needs, and perceptions before your own
- You continually overexert your body and push it to exhaustion
- You have little or no awareness of what is happening INSIDE your body
- You are like a walking head - always busy, overworking, having trouble slowing down or prioritising your needs
- Your relationships feel unbalanced and draining.
- You know you are a perfectionist, always striving to prove yourself or keep up with others.
You will love this program if...
- You want clarity about who you are and what you want
- You want to stop feeling guilty about how others may react or feel about your decisions or life changes
- You want to set boundaries and figure out what is the "right" decision for you

- You would like to learn how to heal trauma in your body
- You want your life to be filled with joy.
"This is it! A balance of counseling, sacred circle, somatic embodying practices and practical tools you can use everyday. Melissa helps you help yourself. I started the discovery of codependency after my marriage break up and through all of my research, no one mentioned the nervous system or the body... Everything was psychological related but it's hard to process trauma intellectually, especially when you're in a moment where you're triggered. Melissa has helped me shift my perception of what codependency is and how I approach my healing.
I highly recommend her course!"

Meet Melissa...
I have been a Transpersonal Psychotherapist and Embodiment Coach for seven years, helping people overcome trauma and thrive in life and relationships. I trained in various modalities to overcome trauma and help others because of my own experience with codependency.
Through my 12-week program, I support women in healing Codependency and Development Trauma by uncovering the root cause and teaching them embodiment practices for healing nervous system wounds, allowing them to thrive in relationships and live the life they want.
I offer individual therapy in person in Adelaide, as well as online.
Discover what's possible for you beyond your Codependency patterns!
The majority of past members expressed their gratitude for the support they received from sharing their struggles with other women. As an experienced psychotherapist, Melissa holds a safe space where you can heal at your own pace, within a supportive group environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if I can't attend live sessions?
We record all live calls so you can watch them later without time restrictions. Over the course of the 3 months, you will be able to ask questions and share your experiences in the group chat. In some cases, women have chosen to participate remotely by watching replays, and that is perfectly fine. Additionally, you will be able to learn at your own pace through the online portal, which contains all the learning materials and guided processes.
How do I know if this program is for me?
There is a good chance that many of these examples will resonate with you. For example, a tendency to please people in family dynamics, to rescue people from their own troubles, or to procrastinate things you should be doing for yourself. These are just a few of the symptoms of codependency. It affects everyone differently, but we can all learn from these patterns and grow beyond them. Beginners as well as those with a lot of healing experience can benefit from taking this program. You can reach out to Melissa at melissa@melissaessence.com if you would like to have a chat.
What if I don't like speaking in groups?
You will never be pressured to participate. This program is conducted in a trauma-informed, safe group environment. During this time, Melissa will hold the space for women and support them in sharing. If you do not want to participate, please let Melissa know and she will accommodate your needs. It is also possible to watch the recording instead of attending the live event.
We have a limited number of spaces, and they sell out quickly.
Enrollment closes on July 20th 2023, so don't miss out!
What women are saying...
All testimonials are from women who have completed the Self Mothering Mastery course.
"I joined Melissa's 12-week Self Mothering Mastery course without knowing why.
I just felt the description sort of called me and I signed up.
Within the first 10 minutes of the first session, I knew I was in the right place as I came to understand how this work could apply to my life.
Over the 12 weeks, there was information and experiences that I already knew and had done, and much that was new. I developed new understanding of how my mind, body and emotions work together and how I can heal them together.
I particularly enjoyed the quantum healing and inner child work and have referenced the embodied boundaries work over and over.
I would highly recommend this course to anyone, whether you think you need it or not - hint: you do. This work is amazing for when you are feeling great and it's beautifully gentle and healing if you are feeling low. Do join this course, the world needs your whole, brilliant, shining soul and this is a wonderful way to unwrap her."
ALISON M.
Self Mothering Mastery student
"Great safe space to learn and unfold and develop techniques to help you mother yourself and let go of any unhelpful behaviours in relationships. I had rapid growth and success in embodying into my self. The practices to help do that were beautiful. Melissa's way of sharing the resources is a real testament to her own journey of lived experience and her desire to help you help yourself. Highly recommend."
JO M.
Self Mothering Mastery student
"After a few years in the 12 step fellowship I realised Codependency was the root to all my struggles with relationships / friendships. I knew I needed to dig deeper and I'm so glad I took the next step in my journey and joined Melissa's 12 week course. The course transformed the way I nurture myself not just mentally but physically too. It took me to a whole other level of meeting who I truly was and how I could meet my own needs and not go to others for validation or comfort. Forever grateful for Melissa's guidance in the 12 weeks and also with offers of support to follow after this time. Thank you Melissa!"
