Melissa is the best independent consultant I've ever worked with in my career. She's very experienced, savvy, conscientious, and is incredibly creative in resolving sensitive and complicated HR issues. In addition to her high quality work, she is also delightful to work with. She really cares about what she does and supporting clients, and goes above and beyond -- making herself available after hours and prioritizing deliverables when something really tricky and time-sensitive had occurred. You won't be disappointed if you hire HR Excellence.

Melissa has been an excellent addition to our team at New Hope Healing. As a smaller mental health business, she has provided excellent expertise in HR support that we would not be able to accomplish on our own. She works with you to meet your own goals within your own budget and makes sure you are complaint which has been a huge relief to us!

Hi Melissa and the HR Team,

I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for everything you do for all of us. From the very beginning, you made my onboarding experience feel incredibly special. Your warmth, kindness, and genuine care made me feel welcomed, valued, and truly appreciated, and that meant the world to me.

You have such a gift for making people feel seen and supported, and I hope you know how much that is appreciated. You give so much to others, and I just want to reflect that back to you. You are appreciated more than words can say.

Thank you for being such a wonderful part of this team. You are truly amazing.

I may be newer here, but it’s already clear how much you do behind the scenes to support all of us. Your quick responses, patience, and clear communication have made my transition smoother and less stressful, and I’m truly grateful for that.

Thank you for making us a priority and for always being dependable when questions come up. We notice and appreciate all you and your team do!!



Thank you.

A big thank you for all that you do. I know HR can be a thankless job so I love having the opportunity to do so.

You all juggle a lot behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly, and it doesn’t go unnoticed. Thanks for answering endless questions, keeping us on track, and somehow managing to do it all with patience (and probably a lot of coffee).

Thanks for everything. You guys ROCK!

Thank you for all you do, having a team to rely on and help with personnel issues and benefit questions is critical to our workflow and success. We truly appreciate the support you provide for our organization.
