Hi I’m Erica,
I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 10 years old. I know first hand how hard it can be to navigate this world with ADHD. The lifelines that got me through were the people in my life who focused on what I was really good at, who saw me for so much more than my ADHD and who helped create environments where my strengths could shine. I want to be the person who sees the light people with ADHD have inside and help them to build lives that honour who they are instead of ones who try to crush them.
In true ADHD fashion I have tried my hand at a plethora of jobs, education and trainings. I am a certified CAN (Centre for Applied Neuroscience) coach, a trained meditation instructor, a black belt and a former martial arts instructor, and registered massage therapist. I also studied and earned a Bachelor of Arts Honours Specialization in Kinesiology from Western University. Although, it may seem like I have studied many different topics, I believe they all come together to inform my knowledge and continued study of the full human being (the mind, body and spirit). By studying my whole self- my body (massage, kinesiology) , my mind (coaching/ meditation), and my soul (meditation, martial arts, tai chi etc.) I have been on a journey of gaining compassion and strong self-awareness.
Testimonials
“working with Erica has been a game changer for me”
Kasia
“The support I didn’t know I needed! Being recently diagnosed with adult ADHD, working with Erica has been a game changer for me. I am learning how to support myself and understanding my symptoms and how I am experiencing them. Seeing my successes brings a new light to my acceptance and self love. Being more consistent has shifted behaviour in my child and how I show up for my partner.”
“Erica has been an actual Godsend to help with my ADHD! ”
Laurissa
“Erica has been an actual Godsend to help with my ADHD! I was feeling extremely lost and discouraged because of my ADHD and very limited. I always felt very organized and empowered after each session with Erica! I found myself needing to make sure I booked another session to keep myself on track! Highly recommend booking with her!!!.”
“ I’ve been able to make really meaningful changes in my life so much more quickly since we've started having sessions.”
Jordan
“Erica is amazing, I’m obsessed! Such incredible value for the price.
This ADHD coach is top tier as far as counsellors and consultants go in any category that I’ve ever worked with. I’ve been able to make really meaningful changes in my life so much more quickly since we've started having sessions.
It really helps to have someone to brainstorm with who has such a depth of knowledge about ADHD, and who is delightful to work with on systems that make my life better. Erica’s suggestions and insights are so helpful and effective, I always feel our sessions leave me much better prepared for the rest of the day and weeks ahead. I find the structure of these sessions so grounding and uplifting. I love how they are designed to allow my brain to be exactly the way it is, and I can still retain all of the information and insights I need to take away.
I can’t believe that I was able to find such affective support in my price range. I am so impressed!
I am recommending Erica to everyone that I know who has ADHD!”
“Erica really helped me through a crisis and helped level my thinking”
Mike
It’s been great! Erica really helped me through a crisis and helped level my thinking without dipping into meds. She gave me space to reflect and process, and helpful prompts to understand myself. I really appreciate the structure of the sessions – dedicated meditation session is great. Erica also helped normalize my ADHD-like behaviours.
“ It was a very comfortable and positive space. “
Zoe
“ I have a lot of thoughts but I sometimes struggle to connect them or figure out the deeper meaning behind my emotions. I found that Erica was really able to listen to what I was saying, make important connections, and summarize everything in a way that made sense to me. Coming into this experience, I was afraid of being judged but I felt zero judgement from Erica. It was a very comfortable and positive space.
I also liked having feasible action items to work on throughout the week! I appreciated the focus on goals/solutions. It was very motivating. Sometimes the idea of change and growth can seem hopeless, especially when you put your problems in the context of systemic issues (like government, climate crisis, etc.), but Erica did a great job of helping me find realistic, yet impactful things to work on (like taking better care of myself so I can continue to work without burning out).”
“She has a way of putting people at ease”
Des
“Erica is super relatable, she has a way of putting people at ease. I found that her reassuring, calm presence often grounded the session. She is able to hold space for me and allowed me to open up and be vulnerable and then gently reel me back to the present with a positive path forward.”
“Having an attentive listener providing feedback is a great motivator”
Raphael
“I was encouraged to set goals and voice my concerns or observations regarding barriers to my success that I seem to place on myself. Having an attentive listener providing feedback is a great motivator for me to do my stuff and clear the path to keep moving forward.”
