MELISSA VRANJES

Certified Holistic Sex and Relationship Coach, Somatic Therapist.

I’m currently on maternity leave and will be returning to see clients November 2026.

But for now I can still support you through my membership - Sex School or drop into a one-off masterclass.

Sex School

Sex School is a practical, body-based sex education platform for women who want more confidence, more pleasure and deeply satisfying sex.

It’s the “this-is-how-you-do-it” teachings most of us were never given, from understanding your body and building desire, to communicating what you need, exploring pleasure, and feeling more turned on in the bedroom.

No weird clinical sex-ed. No vague “just relax” advice. Just honest, practical guidance and support.

Online Workshops

My online workshops are practical, pleasure-focused classes you can access instantly and revisit anytime you need a refresher.

Each workshop gives you clear, step-by-step guidance on topics like oral sex, libido, relationships, BDSM, sexual confidence, communication, pleasure and so much more.

Purchase once, get lifetime access, and learn at your own pace, privately, confidently and without the awkwardness.

There’s more to great sex than just “doing it.”

It’s about feeling safe in your body.
Being deeply seen, without needing to perform or ‘fake it.’
Knowing your needs, desires, and boundaries and freely expressing them.

Inside my private sessions, we zoom out from the bedroom and go into the deeper patterns held in your body.

We’ll gently explore where you’ve learned to shut down, hold shame, or disconnect from your pleasure so you can reclaim your sexual aliveness, access deeper pleasure, and feel confident.

Sex is more regular

“Before working with Mel, sex was a checklist task that felt exhausting and loaded with pressure to reset our relationship, leaving us stuck in our heads and out of our bodies. Her warmth created such a safe, non judgemental space, she never pushed me too far, yet the gentle moments she did led to massive realisations. Now sex is more regular, more spontaneous even with our child in the house, more fun, and easier to say yes to. I also realised only 10% of this work is about sex; she helped me reframe belief systems, remember who I am in motherhood, and transform my relationship. The great sex was just the cherry on top.”

Nothing short of life-changing

“Working with Melissa the past 7 months has been nothing short of life-changing! I never fully understood the power of a coach until our work began. She guided me to unpack, process and integrate so much of my inner work to an even deeper level than I could have done on my own.”

JENN (CANADA)

Sex life back after babies

“Before working with Mel, the interest just wasn’t there and I felt really nervous about any form of intimacy or touch. After having babies we let space get the best of us and everything between us became very foreign. I was unsure what to expect, but I trusted Mel and her expertise. Now my partner and I engage physically every day. We’ve come so far, from shying away to more than a kiss, cuddling, having deep conversations and reconnecting again.”

HOLLY (NZ)

Helped me step past the fear

“I felt completely disconnected from my femininity, from my sexuality and from the feeling of confidence. I felt like there was something wrong with my body. With my pussy and with my sex drive. Having that kind of support has helped me step past the fear. To be proud of my body. Of who I am and what it means to be a woman in her full expression.”

SOPHIE (NZ)

Reconnect with my body

“Before working with Melissa, I struggled with confidence and felt disconnected from my sensuality. I often found myself grieving past relationships and wasn’t sure how to create deeper intimacy. Melissa helped me reconnect with my body, build my confidence, and embrace my sexuality. The tools and practices gave me the power to embrace vulnerability and emotional openness, I’m forever grateful.”

JULIA (AUS)

Changed my life

“Meeting my empowered self was SUCH a powerful revelation. As I think you know, she’s changed my life! I’ve worked with coaches before, but the embodiment practices Melissa guided me through were like nothing I had experienced before. They were so impactful and have led me on a journey I could never have predicted.”

Our Sessions Together

Our sessions combine talk-therapy with body-based practices that help you move out of those heady thoughts that keep you stuck, and back into your body where you can feel more connected, alive and optimistic about creating a plan moving forward.

We use things like mindfulness, breath, gentle movement, grounding tools and nervous system regulating practices to help you move through your challenges.

Every session is collaborative and tailored to what you need in the moment with space to slow down, integrate and leave feeling super clear on your next steps.

 FAQs

  • All our sessions take place online via Zoom, ensuring you can relax in the comfort of your own home. Each session begins with a grounding meditation or drop-in practice to help you fully arrive.

    Then, we'll likely engage in practices designed to help you connect with your body, overcome obstacles, and gain clarity.

    Near the end of our session, we'll focus on integration, reflecting on your experiences, learnings, and any shifts you've noticed. Together we’ll craft an action plan
