Hi, I'm Dr. Erin! Thanks for visiting my website. I want to help empower you to get well and get your life back so that you can be the best possible version of yourself and live your best life!

You see, I have been there. In 2014, I was stressed, overworked, overweight, I had no boundaries in my life and I was very sick. I felt like I was always running on empty and looking for the next quick fix...whether it was caffeine, sugary treats, or fast food. I was so lost in the Standard American Diet that I was starting down the path of having the standard American diseases. My wake-up call came fast though when I visited my Osteopath and realized that I needed help! My labs indicated that I was dealing with PCOS, hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's, insulin resistance, impaired renal function, liver disease, gallstones, pancreatitis, anemia, gluten sensitivities, hormone imbalances, dehydration, and nutritional deficiencies. 

​

Over that next year, I changed my whole lifestyle and eating habits, dropped 70 pounds, used lots of supplements to help with nutritional gaps, learned what foods my body needed to function properly, most of my labs returned to normal & I was no longer addicted to things that no longer served me. My husband and I were featured on the evening news because together, we had lost over 100 pounds, but that's where my journey to becoming a Naturopathic Doctor actually begins. 

​

In April of 2016, I was having a lot of joint and muscle pain and it didn't make sense to me. Why would I feel worse after getting so healthy? I knew something wasn't right. I went from doctor to doctor, looking for answers. I was tested for just about everything under the sun. I was finally told that my Lyme disease test was positive and it was time to begin treatment, right in the height of my busy season at work. Some things that the medical doctors suggested made me much worse, a few things helped along the way but intuitively I knew there was even more to the story. Sometimes getting healthy feels like peeling layers of an onion! As I detoxed the Lyme, I found out that I had also been exposed to mold which triggered mast cell activation disorder. My food allergies were unreal, I could only safely eat about 13 foods and I was having reactions to just about everything. It was a very scary time in my life but thankfully, today my Lyme is in remission, my mold labs are improving and my mast cell is well managed.

I had several Naturopathic Doctors along my journey that helped me SO much that I wanted to know everything that they were taught in school! In 2017, I decided to go back to school, at the age of 37. As intimidating as it was, I knew it would help me learn how to heal myself and that I was being called to help others in the ways that my naturopaths helped me. Many people have told me how relatable my health journey story is and so I became "The Relatable Health Coach." In 2019, I received my Certified Health Specialist and Certified Natural Health Professional certifications from Trinity School of Natural Health, and in 2021, I received my Doctor of Naturopathy diploma from Trinity as well. I also became a Certified Ho'oponopono Practitioner, learning the ancient Hawaiian healing wisdom from the late Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len which has transformed my life and those around me.

Every day is a journey back to better health and I have met so many amazing clients, colleagues, and friends on this journey. Regardless of the labels of "dis-ease" that others may have placed upon you, please know that there are many alternative options available to you and many paths to healing and wholeness. If you are looking for someone to walk this journey with you and you want more from your healthcare than the typical quick appointment and little orange bottle, then I am the naturopath for you. I can't wait to chat with you and see how I can help empower you to take your health back holistically the way that I did!
