“Whether you’re navigating complex illness, chronic stress, trauma, or a difficult season of life, you don’t have to walk the path alone. Together we’ll cultivate the tools, awareness, and resilience to help you move forward with greater ease and self-trust.”

Health & Nervous System Coaching

Whether you’re navigating complex illness, chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, trauma, burnout, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, you don’t have to do it alone.

Together, we’ll explore the connections between your physical health, nervous system, emotions, stress, environment, relationships, and daily habits. By looking at the whole picture, we can uncover patterns, build resilience, and create practical pathways toward healing and well-being.

My role is not to fix you. It’s to offer guidance, tools, support, and a compassionate space as you reconnect with your body’s wisdom and innate capacity to heal.

Why This Work Is Personal

My path to this work began through my own healing journey.

Over the years, I navigated multiple head injuries with concussions, mold exposure, Lyme disease and co-infections, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), dysautonomia, POTS, and the many challenges that come with living in a body that doesn’t feel safe or predictable.

Like many of the people I work with, I spent years searching for answers.

What ultimately changed my life wasn’t a single protocol or practitioner. It was learning to understand the connections between the nervous system, immune system, physical symptoms, emotions, stress, environment, and daily life.

The tools I share today are not only rooted in professional training—they are practices I have relied on in my own healing and continue to use every day.

How We Might Work Together

Every healing journey is unique, but our work together may include:

• Nervous system education and regulation practices

• Vagus nerve support, including the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a therapeutic listening program designed to help the nervous system experience greater safety, connection, and regulation over time

• Mindfulness, meditation, and body awareness practices

• Exploring the connections between physical symptoms, emotions, stress, relationships, environment, and daily life

• Support navigating complex illness, medical overwhelm, and the challenges of living with persistent symptoms

• Identifying patterns that may be contributing to dysregulation, stress, or symptom flare-ups

• Creating sustainable practices that support resilience, healing, and well-being

• Accountability, encouragement, and compassionate guidance along the way

My approach is collaborative, individualized, and rooted in the understanding that healing happens when we address the whole person—not just a diagnosis or symptom.

What People Are Saying

“Erica is one of those wise spirits you feel instantly drawn too ....warm, sincere, compassionate and generous.

Erica took the time to listen to my serious health concerns while providing me with insightful and thoughtful diagnostic and treatment resources and options specific to my needs.

If Growth and Transformation is the path you're traveling on, Erica is someone you want on your team!”

- Electra F.,Oakland, Ca.

“I have had the pleasure of working with Erica in many different ways over the years. I know her to be a loving, grounded, encouraging and warm teacher. She is the kind of teacher who shows up with a grounded plan, yet can also improvise and move in a completely new direction if needed. She models vulnerability and authenticity, which allows more powerful connecting and relating in her groups. The space she creates is both beautiful and fun, and I love how she weaves creativity and spirit together, and invites me to access my inner wisdom through my creativity. I am a big Yes to anything Erica offers! “

-Sirena M., Oakland, ca.

“I was (and am) dealing with serious health issues. Erica showed me her open heart and compassion by directly offering to help and encourage me through one of the most difficult times of my life. She also offered space for me to explore my needs and move forward when I was ready. Anyone would be lucky to have Erica as their teacher and I’m confident you will experience nothing but honesty and kindness from her.

Sounds cliche, but we need more people in the world like Erica.”

— Robin C., Los Angeles, Ca.

A Message of Hope

“One day you will tell your story of how you overcame what you went through and it will become someone else’s survival guide.”

— Brené Brown

I held onto this quote during some of the hardest years of my life.

What I couldn’t see then was that the challenges I was navigating would eventually allow me to walk beside others facing similar struggles.

Today, one of the greatest honors of my life is helping people feel seen, understood, and supported as they find their own path forward.

Healing is rarely linear, and every journey looks different. But I believe there is always room for hope.

Healing doesn’t happen all at once, and you don’t have to walk the path alone.
