Hi there my friend,
I know how difficult it can be to navigate daily life with chronic illness, chronic pain, and chronic stress or overwhelm.
I created this site so that you would feel seen, understood, and less alone in your experience.
I know firsthand how attempting to build a full, connected, and adventurous life alongside chronic illness/pain symptoms and all the stress that comes with it can be so confusing, overwhelming, and isolating... and it can feel impossible to even know where to begin or how to realistically make it happen, without constantly over-pushing yourself physically in the process.
I'd love to walk with you through this journey and show you that you don't have to do it alone. There is hope for deep fulfillment, joy, and a life that feels meaningful - even in the midst of chronic illness - when you learn how to support your nervous system, work with stress effectively as it comes up, and honor what your body needs.
All the best, Erin

Complex Trauma & Chronic Illness Coach
I know this work personally because I have lived it. After a 32-year journey with severe chronic illness, chronic pain, and complex trauma, I know what it’s like to feel constantly anxious and then shut down, overwhelmed by physical and emotional symptoms, that you're always trying to manage but never get better, and exhausted from trying approach after approach without any lasting relief or progress.
I also know how much can change when your body finally becomes part of the healing process. Through consistent nervous system regulation, trauma resolution, and support that went deeper than surface-level stress management, I began creating meaningful, lasting shifts in my symptoms, stress levels, quality of life, and sense of possibility. I then became trained as a Somatic Practitioner to help others experience the same kind of healing and freedom in the midst of illness.
“Erin helped me out tremendously in a season where I experienced so much anxiety and fear on a daily basis... I would leave with great tools to help myself to be present with my body in times when my anxiety attacks or intense physical symptoms would come in and overwhelm me.”

“Throughout my life it has been a struggle for me to open up to people, but with Erin I not only felt safe enough to do so - but I was always met with acceptance, compassion, and understanding in the process. I can share with her things I've been ashamed of and feel so much better afterwards.”

I've done talk therapy and EMDR for years but honestly this has been much more effective for me. Normally I would feel so anxious around a lot of the things I've been dealing with this week (including my symptom flares) but today I feel mostly calm and can handle the anxiety much better overall.
