Empower Growth
Hi! I'm Melissa,​
Welcome! 

With a compassionate, heart-centered approach and a genuine dedication to supporting others, I bring over two decades of experience as a Tertiary Qualified Counsellor. Throughout my journey, I’ve had the privilege of helping couples and individuals navigate life’s challenges - whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship struggles - by providing a safe and nurturing space for healing and transformation.

​

I hold a Diploma in Counselling and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Social Work. My practice is rooted in empathy, respect, and a deep understanding of each person’s unique path. Using evidence-based techniques, I aim to empower my clients, fostering resilience and personal growth as they move toward greater clarity, balance, and well-being.

​​

I’m passionate about creating a safe and supportive space where healing and self-discovery can flourish. My approach is collaborative and client-centered, meaning we work together to develop personalised strategies that align with your unique journey.

​

Beyond counselling, I am deeply committed to raising awareness about the ascension process and the Lightbody, helping individuals navigate these profound energetic shifts. As humanity moves through rapid transformation, I see my role as a guide - offering support, insight, and healing on all levels.

​

Whether you’re facing challenges, seeking clarity, or striving for deeper personal growth, I am here to walk alongside you. My goal is to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom and step into a life of greater balance, fulfillment, and authenticity.

About Me

​

I grew up in a vibrant Italian-Australian home, surrounded by music, culture, and the warmth of home-cooked meals. My father’s passion for singing and my brother’s musical talents filled our home with creativity, while my grandmother’s healing wisdom introduced me to spiritual practices. From a young age, I explored tarot, the I Ching, and energy healing, developing a deep connection to the unseen world.

​

Life’s challenges, including profound loss and personal struggles, shaped my journey of self-discovery and healing. Through holistic studies, energy work, and counselling, I transformed pain into purpose. Now, I guide others in reclaiming their power, healing past wounds, and consciously creating a life of alignment and fulfillment.

"We don't respond to what happens, we respond to our perception of what happens.
Our perceptions & beliefs shape our reality.
Once we understand the origin, we then can choose something more empowering, and liberate ourselves, shedding light on the "shadow" or subconscious."
-Melissa Mammana

What Client's Say

I have Asperger's, chronic physical illness, and have been diagnosed with Bipolar and anxiety, which I have had all of my life and have seen countless counsellors and psychologists over the years, and no-one compares to Melissa who understood my symptoms to be associated with trauma, and I felt heard and validated. She was also caring and honest, and I began to feel clarity and more in control of my life. Thank you!
