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.

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.

I am a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Personal Trainer with master's degrees in science education and divinity. When I was diagnosed with multiple autoimmune diseases, I became debilitated. I had to drastically change how I eat, sleep, and manage stress to manage symptoms and regain control of my health. After finding what works for me, I decided to help others do the same by starting my own practice, Vivek Wellness.

Today, help people take a holistic approach to their health so they can reach their goals while feeling good in their body. Whether I'm caring for autoimmune clients, personal training clients, Teen clients in mental health facilities, or my own kids, I know how important it is to approach our health through multiple modalities. www.vivekwellness.com

I am a Chef and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. I've worked in the food industry since 2014 operating a food bank in Seattle, teaching cooking classes at Google, and being a personal chef in people's homes. It's safe to say I love food! When my mom went through breast cancer treatment and was looking for nutrition advice, I realized I knew how to make food but not what it did inside our bodies. That led me to the Nutritional Therapy Association, where I learned how amazing the human body is, the importance of blood sugar regulation, and how many different layers there are to true health and wellness. 

I want to help kids, teens, and adults make sense of all the nutrition information out there because it can be confusing and overwhelming. You are not alone! We are in this together.
