Melanie is an Occupational Therapist and Director of Home Element Therapy. Melanie graduated from Deakin University in 2017 and has worked as an OT across a variety of settings since then, including inpatient, outpatient, community rehabilitation, acute care, disability support, community aged care, and hand therapy.

Melanie is passionate about helping people overcome challenges related to ageing, disability, injury, or illness, so they can lead a fulfilled life. She is constantly inspired by the positive impact that Occupational Therapy can have on peoples’ lives. After spending 7 years in Geelong and Sydney, Melanie is keen to bring her passion back to the Moira Shire region, where she grew up, to support the local community.
