Work With Me
I support chronically ill and disabled folks with meeting their fertility and cycle health goals—from contraception and conception, to body literacy and beyond!
While living in an ableist society puts up many barriers to wellbeing, we do not have to do it alone. For me, one of the keys to living well with chronic illness and disability was honoring my own self-expertise, creativity, and body literacy while making diet, lifestyle, and behavior changes that were possible for me because they were created by me. The best way to do this was by having someone in my corner backing me up. And I’d love to be that person for you.
This is for you if you’re looking to learn how to track your cycles and better understand what your body is telling you to meet your health or fertility goals. This symptothermal Fertility Awareness Method can be used for hormone-free birth control, conscious conception, or as a self-awareness practice for gauging your overall health.

But, Erica, I'm not disabled, chronically ill, and/or not interested in fertility awareness—can you help me?
Of course! I speak specifically to disabled and chronically ill folks here on my website because we are so often under-served and our needs are not always acknowledged or met well in the larger wellness or fertility awareness space. But I am trained to support anyone looking to use body literacy and fertility awareness practices to meet their health and fertility goals.
Also, if you’ve found me and are not interested in fertility awareness (maybe you’re not even a cycling person!) but are interested in health coaching to help you implement lifestyle changes, we can absolutely focus on that and coach together too. As a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach I am trained to support you in reaching your health goals as defined by the National Board for Health and Wellness Coaching:
Health and wellness coaches partner with clients seeking to enhance their well-being through self-directed, lasting changes, aligned with their values. In the course of their work, health and wellness coaches display unconditional positive regard for their clients and a belief in their capacity for change, honoring the fact that each client is an expert on their own life, while ensuring that all interactions are respectful and non-judgmental.

Testimonials
Erica helped me work towards hormonal balance when I found it hard to conceive coming off birth control and a lifetime of competitive athletics. Her expertise on the reproductive anatomy, fertility awareness method, and nourishment for reproductive health proved invaluable to me on my journey to conception. Erica’s approach is non judgmental, patient, and affirming. We worked together for just a few months and I’m looking forward to expecting my first baby any day now!

Working with Erica has been nothing short of life changing for me. I had been on the search for a Fertility Awareness Method instructor and as luck would have it, Erica was accepting clients and was even local to me. Her bright personality and clear way of teaching were perfect to help me stay engaged (hello, short attention span!) and created a solid foundation for me with the method. Erica asked me my intentions from the beginning in order to teach me with the right focus and, as someone wanting to avoid pregnancy, this was very important to me! I went from being completely confused in how it all worked and not having much confidence in myself, to understanding the method enough to trust it wholeheartedly and have confidence in myself using it. I now also feel like my mind body connection has really been restored thanks to everything I’ve learned and what I can now interpret from my charts. It has been amazing to go from thinking something was wrong with me to understanding all of the signs my body was giving me that it was doing its job! I am so thankful to Erica for guiding me along this journey and being such a support while I gained my confidence in myself and the method. I always looked forward to each of our sessions and came away from them having learned so much information – but never too much to digest and process it all! If you’re looking for someone energetic, patient and knowledgeable, Erica is the one!

Erica has been so generous with all of us in sharing her knowledge, time and cycle wisdom. Her patience and excitement for what she teaches are obvious, and she’s really made the process of learning how to chart easy, seamless and manageable. Erica clearly knows what she’s talking about and has a gift of sharing her knowledge in a way that’s easy to understand and apply. Thank you!!!

“I loved Body Literacy 101. I’m so grateful for you pursuing this and educating myself and others. I want others to know that hormonal birth control is not their only option. I think it’s vital we know more about our bodies.”

“I wanted to learn about FAM both for the purpose of contraception and for learning how to detect hormonal imbalances. This course met and exceeded my expectations! Your teaching style is excellent! You clearly know your stuff. You flowed through the slides with ease and were open to questions throughout. And you created a welcoming space where everyone could learn and ask questions. Thank you!”

“Body Literacy 101 was so thorough and I now feel confident to start tracking. I’ve always been interested in going more in depth with my cycles, but it felt overwhelming to start. This gave me a lot of background knowledge to really help me feel confident. There is so much to know and learn and I’m excited to track!”

“Working with Erica allowed me to discover my strengths as an individual to reach my personal goals. It was a no judgment zone, which allowed me to verbalize my feelings and work through solutions of how to get to an achievable personal goal. Every session I was able to set a small obtainable goal, which created success in my overall vision. I would highly recommend working with Erica so you too can realize your potential to reach all your personal goals.”

“I was struggling with commitment before I started coaching with Erica. While working together, I felt empowered. She will get inside your head and offer useful suggestions. I’ve since lost weight and am walking every day for an hour. I set out a plan and I am sticking to it!”
