Jesse
I am committed to bridging the gap between nutrition and mental health for children. I founded this organization and created a nutritional curriculum with a vision to empower young minds through nonjudgmental nutritional therapy. I am proud to work with a team of dedicated practitioners who share this mission and make a difference in children’s lives daily.
As a mother myself, I love to incorporate play therapy and make learning fun! Together, we change the future of health by supporting children and teens to eat the best way possible for their physical and mental health.

I am a devoted nutritional therapy practitioner. I specialize in healing the gut and addressing disordered eating patterns. My focus is on guiding individuals through the complexities of nutrition and the foundations of health. I support my clients in rewiring their relationship with eating by emphasizing a holistic approach that encourages eating in a way that nurtures both body and mind. In addition to my private nutrition clients, I conduct nutritional therapy groups for kids at various mental health facilities in the Inland Empire.

Hi, I’m Melissa, a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and the face behind Melissa’s WellNest.
I’m all about helping you feel more like yourself again through simple, realistic nutrition—think nutrient-dense foods, balanced blood sugar, better digestion, and actually supporting your stress and sleep.
I currently work closely with teens, teaching them how nutrition can support their mental health, mood, and daily well-being. I’m big on making nutrition feel approachable and not overwhelming—no extremes, just sustainable habits that fit into real life.
When I’m not working, I’m basically a wannabe homesteader—tending to my chickens, messing around in my tiny garden, and baking sourdough bread. I’m always finding little ways to slow down, get outside, and bring things back to basics.
