Melisa Bassett

Melisa Bassett is a trauma-informed practitioner based in Blenheim, Marlborough, supporting adults to navigate emotional distress, trauma responses, and significant life transitions with greater stability, self-awareness, and personal agency.

Since 2019, she has worked in private practice using an integrated approach that combines hypnotherapy, trauma-informed breathwork, and body-based awareness practices. Her work focuses on supporting nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and the development of resilience following stressful or disruptive life experiences.

Melisa’s approach supports clients to reconnect with their internal resources, strengthen their capacity to respond to life’s challenges, and develop a more grounded and self-led way of relating to themselves and their experiences.

She works with both women and men and offers sessions in person and online, as well as facilitating workshops and group programs. Her work is practical, responsive, and centred on helping clients build emotional stability, clarity, and confidence in how they move forward in their lives.
