Where your journey to a healthier, balanced life begins
More Than a Dietitian – a Partner in Your Well-Being
Erica is not just a dietitian—she is your partner in creating lasting change. She’ll blend her expert nutritional knowledge with proven coaching techniques grounded in the science of motivation, habit formation, and sustainable behavior change. She understands that managing any health condition can be challenging, but with the right support, it’s entirely possible to achieve the feeling of wellness that we all need each day.
She doesn’t believe in simply handing out meal plans or generic healthy lifestyle advice and hoping for the best. That approach doesn’t work. Instead, the goal is to help you build momentum and confidence, empowering you to take ACTION one step at time toward better health on your own terms. Based on the client's interests, Erica will provide an evidence based, digital nutrition assessment and customized, digital meal plans.
During your sessions, Erica will provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your strengths, challenges, and motivators to achieve better health. After each session, you'll leave feeling not just informed, but genuinely motivated and empowered to take the next step(s) on your health journey. Expect a mix of actionable strategies, insights, tools to implement right away and, of course, Erica's support!

“Before working with Erica, I struggled to eat enough nutrient-dense foods. I chose to work with Erica because she is educated, professional, and genuinely friendly. She consistently advocates for my goals and has offered supportive yet constructive guidance. Erica has helped me feel more energized, emotionally stable and improve my relationship with food. It has been a 10/10 experience."
