"Erin was able to provide something for me that I knew I needed for a very long time… a way for my body to no longer feel perpetually stuck in the past, but rather: to start to feel fully safe in, and present to, my everyday life. This is not something that I would have dreamed could ever be possible, given my particularly long history with both trauma and illness... I never thought I could feel this free."

What Previous Clients Have to Say About Working with Me
"When I first started working with Erin, I felt very trapped by my health anxiety. I worried about my body constantly. I had found a team of exceptional doctors and was making some progress, but after a few years, I still felt like something was missing. I could find things that helped, but I couldn’t seem to make the progress last. It was frustrating and discouraging to feel like I was doing so much and still not really getting somewhere.
It’s been about 10 months now, and so much has changed for me. The best way I can describe it is this: I feel fully alive.
Many of my symptoms have slowly started getting better in a way they never have before. But it’s not just the symptoms. Something deeper has changed in the way I experience my life. I feel like I’m finally able to take in and integrate the things I’m doing for my physical and emotional health because I’m not living in a constant state of fight or flight anymore.
And maybe the biggest change of all is that I’m excited about my future again. That might sound simple, but for me, it’s enormous. My chronic illness made it difficult for me to imagine any kind of future that felt hopeful for a very long time. I had gotten so used to thinking about what had gone wrong (and could go wrong) that it was hard to imagine what could go right.
Now I find myself looking forward again. I have more space for my life. I feel more present in it. And in ways that are hard to fully explain, I feel like I’m becoming myself again.
Every area of my life has changed in a positive way. I’m incredibly grateful that I found Erin and somatic work when I did. It has changed the way I relate to my body, my health, and my future, and I’m beyond thankful I found this work when I needed it most."

“Working with Erin has been so valuable and healing to me. She provides an extremely safe space to process past and current pain & trauma, which had previously been very difficult for me to find.
Throughout my life it had 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, understanding, and encouragement in the process.
I now have a much greater understanding of my nervous system and especially when my chronic illness is causing me to go back into survival mode. She has taught me how to come back to safety, again and again, in the midst of it.
This somatic healing work is absolutely life-changing, and Erin teaches it from her own lived, embodied experience in a way that is so authentic and has helped me to feel so much less alone on my healing journey.
She is such a gift and I have no doubt that she will help many others to receive the same breakthroughs that I have found in working with her!”

“Erin helped me so much in recognizing that the pain of my past is very real and valid… and at the same time, there is a way to heal from it and experience freedom today.
Erin not only listens incredibly well, but creates a VERY safe space where she is able to ask the right questions, while at the same time never once judging or seeming surprised by my answers.
I now have the tools to continue to revisit and feel into the parts of my life and past that were difficult for me, at a very simple and tolerable pace.
AND I can meet myself with kindness, nurturance, and self-regulation both in those re-lived past experiences, and in my current circumstances... I have never felt more empowered.”

“Erin helped me out tremendously in a season where I experienced so much anxiety and so much fear on a daily basis.
We did many practical exercises in our sessions together that always felt safe and supportive.
She is so welcoming and so present, and I felt so much comfort during my time with her.
I would leave our meetings with great tools to help myself to be present with my body in times when my anxiety attacks or extreme symptoms would come in and overwhelm me.”

"Erin has continually highlighted for me that my trauma responses are, and always have been, nothing short of brilliant. I no longer judge myself for the ways that I’ve survived, but rather, I hold the deepest respect and gratitude for myself and my history now."
