Mel Fioravanti has devoted several decades to studying the human psyche, addiction, grief, sexuality, trauma, creativity, spirituality, death, ritual, and the mysteries of life. Being an experiential learner and teacher, she has traveled the world to learn from renowned teachers in various modalities, such as trauma resolution, altered states, transpersonal modalities, grief, love, eroticism, energy, and magic. Mel began exploring these realms at the age of sixteen after her own personal struggles with grief and trauma, and is passionate about helping people shift the negative patterns that block their access to hope, pleasure, resilience, and joy.
