Types of Consultations with Melanie
Health Intake with Herbal Protocol: $90+
The intake takes between 1 1/2 to 2 hours. We cover your health history and look for signs of imbalance based on your intake, and facial, tongue, and pulse analysis. This is a safe space for you to share your innermost self and sessions are completely confidential. Melanie has been in practice for 14 years and has successfully worked with stubborn digestive ailments, anxiety, depressive states, fatigue, addictions, chronic health conditions, problems with lymph, spiritual crises…etc. The cost of this session covers your appointment time with Melanie and any herbs you might need are additional. A starter protocol is typically around $40-$60. Herbal refills can either be mailed out as needed or can be picked up upon request for just the cost of the herbs. There is no other fee associated with picking up or mailing out herbs (just shipping). You will likely be on a protocol for a couple of months to see the full results. Zoom sessions are available.

Quick Reformulation Visit: $35
These are short visits for folks who just need an adjustment to their formula. They take no more than 30 minutes, but gives us the time to pulse test and/or dowse for herbs and have a brief check-in. I often tell people that herbs are like shampoo. After awhile your hair regimen needs a change! And herbs are just like that. Our bodies are always changing and adapting. It’s good to reassess your herbal protocol every 3 months, or sooner, depending on what health goals you are working on. Most herbal tinctures are $10 per ounce. Herbal teas vary in prices. Medicinal mushroom powders are available as well as other organic and natural health-enhancing products.
Follow-up Appointments: $50
Follow-ups last 45 min. to one hour. During this time we address other health challenges and/or we reassess your current health care protocol, making any necessary changes to your formulas.
Compassionate Inquiry Session: $65
In this one-hour long session, Melanie creates a safe space to explore difficult feelings, recurrent issues, and the hidden, limiting beliefs that keep us stuck. Compassionate Inquiry, (a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Dr. Gabor Mate), invites us to be curious about what unconscious part of us is in the driver’s seat of our life and provides insight into why we make the choices we make. Instead of seeing these beliefs, emotions, and actions as a problem, we can view them as something to explore- a gift that can teach us about ourselves, if we are willing to learn. When we realize why we created our particular coping mechanisms, their grip loosens and we become more compassionate toward ourselves. Melanie’s primary wish is that her clients learn to live a life of genuine authenticity with flexibility of consciousness, enjoyment of life, and a sense of deep empowerment that invoke’s trust in one’s inner resources while fostering compassion for oneself and others.

Compassionate Inquiry 4 Sessions: $240
It takes time to build a client/practitioner relationship. Sometimes one session is all that’s needed, but for most people who are dealing with old and challenging issues, we are only scratching the surface after one session. My recommendation is that you invest in your healing and book one session a week with this package. Once you reach out to me, I will send you a Calendly link to set up your session times. With this package you save $20.
