One of the main ways I am able to help more people is when folks read what my clients have said or talk to my clients. If you have something you’d like to add to this list, just pop me an email and you can help me help others – melanie@peacefruit.com

Here is some of the super nice stuff people have said about me . . .

“During the 10 plus years that I have known Melanie McGhee she has exemplified a model of inner peace for those around her.  Her calm demeanor and quiet, measured approach creates a space that allows you to connect with yourself.  You are able to explore your life, your dreams and your connection to God and the Universe in an atmosphere of acceptance.   At the same time, Melanie encourages you to move forward to confront the issues which block your inner peace by quietly challenging you to look deeper.  I have found her guidance and support enormously helpful during those times when I have lost sight of my inner peace. I consider Melanie and PeaceFruit a personal resource as well as a resource for my clients.”

Linda Pucci, Ph.D., (http://www.innerresourcecenter.net)

“I recently had the rare opportunity of having my very own private and personal spiritual wellness and growth retreat for an entire weekend with Melanie!  It was fun, engaging, soulful, tearful, powerful and ‘eye-opening’ as well as ‘heart-opening.’

The retreat aligned me with new possibilities that are both practical and very deep.  I felt safe and so very cared for.  Melanie took over with such ease and quiet certainty that all I had to do was be present and open and willing. Our time together unlocked inner reservoirs of strength and awareness.

As time has passed following the retreat, I have been feeling more grounded in myself and in my relationships with others.  I feel that this ‘unlocking’ will lead to a self confidence and self love that comes from simply ‘being’ rather than merely ‘doing,’ helping me to feel more at ease in myself and to ride with the waves that life presents rather than fighting the current and swimming against it, as often happens with me.

So thank you, Melanie!  I highly recommend this experience to others.  It is truly a turning point and the beginning of a process that I know will continue for the rest of my life.”

Dr. Anna Hayward

“Melanie has become one of my most trusted resources when I need support for challenging situations.  Having known her as a teacher, personal coach and therapist, I have experienced profound and life-changing breakthroughs with her steady guidance.  Most importantly, I have made tremendous progress in overcoming a life-long panic disorder.  Working with Melanie has been remarkably empowering for me.  She has given me practical tools that I can use daily to take charge of my emotional healing process.”

Lisa J. Mitchell

“Melanie’s counsel and gentle spirit helped me deal effectively with issues that presented major challenges for me.  I have continued my relationship with her, always knowing that she is available for guidance on my personal relationships, professional life, and future endeavors.  She has the ability to maintain her professionalism while ensuring that I know that she values me as a person, not just as a client.

Melanie is a wonderful coach.  She has the unique ability to see many sides of an issue that is often viewed as “one-sided” by her clients, and share that global perspective while still respecting her clients’ concerns.  She researches new technologies and opportunities and shares ideas and suggestions.  She encourages me to try new things and not worry about or be afraid of the success or failure–just value the journey!”

Judy Jones

“Melanie is Grace incarnate.  She will help you become who you already are, and you will be so much wiser for it! Overly poetic?  Maybe.  But true nevertheless.’

Gary Gray, M.B.A.

“Upon a friend’s recommendation I enrolled in a course Melanie was teaching titled ‘Living with Intention.’ I have continued seeing Melanie off and on over the years since that first course.  I have had the opportunity to benefit from her private one-on-one therapy and coaching sessions, her group classes, her awesome retreats, and my husband and I benefited from meeting with her for couples counseling.

Melanie’s priorities are always clear.  She is focused and dedicated to helping her clients. She is very good at what she does.  Melanie helps people identify their needs then practices the best strategies for intervention.  She is encouraging, supportive, as well as straightforward and honest.  Her interactions are always sincere and compassionate.

She is obviously dedicated and committed to her work.  One of her many attributes is her willingness to seek new intervention therapies and new avenues to provide her services.

I highly recommend Melanie McGhee to you without reservation.”

Susie Robertson, Ph.D.

“As Melanie settles into a presence with her clients she brings calm waters to the restless lake in which they seek to see themselves more clearly.  It is not only her techniques and skills, which she has certainly honed through many seasons of professional experiences, which assist navigating the depths of personal growth but her dedication to being wholly present with her clients.  I feel blessed to have had the experience of witnessing her work of joy and joy at work in teaching others to sow seeds of personal peace which bring forth the fruits of richer relationships and authentic happiness.”

Michael Carter, Ph.D.

“Not only am I back to myself.  I’m better than I ever was!”

Karen Billingsley

“Thank you Melanie for this teleclass.  It was congruent for me in making the connection from our Fall Retreat and the book I enjoyed.  I do so enjoy giving myself the gift of exploring my innerness, but many times need some new lenses in how to look inside me.  Thank you for new lenses!

The retreats and courses I’ve taken with you have given me a safe framework to explore so I can see myself better.  By my caring for and clearing me, I am able to care and be of greater service to others AND be ALL of my potential!  Thank you!”

Kathy White, P.T. Feldenkrais Practitioner

“I cannot tell you what an amazing time I had yesterday – I woke up today to work on reflecting and the fullness I feel inside I have never felt before – I am very interested in doing another retreat! Thank you for such a wonderful and engaging retreat.”

Dawn

“You are so great at listening!  It really amazes me how you can really hear what a person is saying and see where the help is needed.  You have a unique ability to see the bigger picture.”

Lindsey Lieb

“Clearly, there are many benefits I experienced in this course.  I will take tools with me that I know will bring direction and clarity — better skills to communicate and moving towards realizing my ‘Essence.’ I feel like a monarch butterfly.  Melanie, you are brilliant!  Thank you for being you.”

Suzi Elledge

“This was a fundamentally NEW experience for me.  I felt myself opening throughout the day.  I experienced a significant reduction of anxiety, feeling self conscious and guardedness.  I felt an increased sense of ONENESS, of ease and lots of skills and tools I can use for self-care.  Please offer again.”

Daphne Cain, L.C.S.W.

“I’ve really been enjoying our sessions. You are such a gifted therapist and guide. Can’t wait for our next “skype” session!”
