Hi, I'm Melissa!
I help occupational therapists to grow and scale in the online space with confidence.
Whether you're a course creator, a coach or a consultant, I've created resources and programs to help you figure out your messaging, understand your online business fundamentals and launch with confidence.
Have you found yourself going down the rabbit hole of all the different ways you can work online, self-doubt and uncertainty building with each step?
Or maybe you've been *trying* to build an online revenue stream for awhile now and it's simply not sustainable for the amount of hours you're putting in, in exchange for the few dollars you're making.
How are other therapists doing it? What's the trick?
Working online and offering virtual products + services doesn't mean letting go of your holistic, client-centered approach to therapy.
It simply means learning to use technology to build a therapeutic relationship and to reach more people with your messaging, while leveraging your time.
It also means re-evaluating your relationship with time and perfectionism.
It means stretching your comfort zone and learning new things.
Working online also means developing a marketing system and a sales mechanism. It means tracking numbers. It also means taking a closer look your relationship with time, money and success.
Don't worry... One of our super powers is to simplify what needs to be done as you transition to the online space, while making this process FUN. Whether you're wanting to do this as a side gig OR as your full time thing, we can help!

More About Melissa
I'm an OT-turned consultant and business strategist, supporting other therapists in entrepreneurship and personal growth.
After practicing as a rural paediatric therapist for 7 years, I left my full time job and started my own business. I offered a combination of consulting to other health professionals, 1:1 cash-based women's health services, group programs and community workshops. I was a true generalist without a defined niche and I knew that something had to give if I wanted this to be more than an expensive hobby.
In 2018, I made the decision to hang up my clinical hat and go all in with my online coaching and consulting services. And what a journey it’s been!

"Since working with Melissa, I’ve gotten better at defining my boundaries, building confidence, stepping out of my comfort zone, and pursuing professional growth opportunities I would have been too intimidated to attempt before… I love that she’s able to relate to clinicians with personal examples that she has encountered with relation to common struggles that therapists are encountering when entering this field. If you’re on the fence, I encourage you to take the plunge and sign up. You won’t regret it and you’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish!"
