The Personal development Centre was created in 2009 after Melissa Hadfield was inspired to develop a holistic service where the programs offered would support humanity in its exploration of self discovery.

After working and studying in the Community Services field for ten years, it was overwhelmingly apparent that there was a missing link in the progress and empowerment of community members seeking support. It became Melissa’s passion to work with people on a deeper level, empowering and promoting self love and focusing on them as a whole, rather than exploring each issue that brought them to where they are.

In 2008 Melissa added to her skill base and training by becoming a certified workshop facilitator and began running self-esteem workshops in different places around Australia.

In 2009 Melissa became certified in Life Coaching and made the decision to start the Personal Development Centre.

Additional staff bring to the Centre many valuable holistic therapies and skills which compliment the diverse range of workshops and retreats.

Staff have extensive experience in the following areas:

• Mental/Physical/Emotional Health
• Family Dynamics
• Disabilities
• Mediation
• Homelessness
