OUR UNIQUE PROCESS

The Functional C.A.R.E. Method™️

unCover. Align. Resolve. Evolve.

unCover.

STEP 1: GETTING TO THE ROOT OF YOUR HEALTH

Before we even meet, we start gathering important insights about your health. After enrolling, you’ll complete an in-depth health history intake form, sharing your symptoms, stories, and key health information. From there, we dive into the data—reviewing your intake form, past lab results, and any relevant medical history.

Your First Session: A Deep Dive Conversation

In our first video session, we conduct a thorough review of your health history, lab results, and lifestyle. We’ll discuss your current health struggles, dietary habits, emotional blocks, and health goals. Expect lots of questions! This is our research phase where we gather the context we need to create your personalized plan.

Align.

STEP 2: ALIGNING YOUR NEEDS WITH TAILORED SUPPORT

Your healing journey is unique, and so is your C.A.R.E. plan. While we leverage functional lab testing as a valuable tool, we believe in a whole-person approach. Labs are not just numbers; they are clues to understanding you—the person behind the data.

We tailor our recommendations based on your symptoms, goals, and the results we uncover — and we work alongside you to ensure every step is personalized.

Complete Transparency
You’ll understand exactly why we're recommending specific tests, treatments, and lifestyle changes, and we’ll walk you through every lab result so you feel fully informed. We invite you to record our sessions so you can revisit the information anytime.

Resolve.

STEP 3: CUSTOMIZED C.A.R.E FOR REAL RESULTS

Here’s what most people don’t understand and why attempts at feeling better can often fail: symptoms are the way your body communicates with you. This is why we cannot achieve true symptom resolution until after steps 1 and 2 - we need to unCover what the communication is trying to tell us and then Align your C.A.R.E. plan with this information.

From there, we can focus on directly addressing your most troublesome symptoms—whether it’s fatigue, pain, digestive issues, or hormonal imbalances—and begin working toward fast, noticeable relief.

Our goal is simple: get you the answers and support you need, as quickly as possible—without rushing the process. 

We continue to evaluate your progress, adjusting your plan as needed to ensure we’re on the right track. You’ll always have direct access to your practitioner for questions and ongoing support. We’re in this together until you feel better.

Evolve.

STEP 4: RECLAIM YOUR ENERGY, REIGNITE YOUR LIFE

Symptom resolution is just the first step—what comes next is a whole new level of vitality. As you move through our process, you'll notice a surge in energy, mental clarity, and overall well-being.

When you’re no longer held back by persistent symptoms, you’ll start to see the ripple effect in every part of your life.

If you want the energy to show up as your best self and experience life in a whole new way, apply to work with us today!

  • "

    Rachel's knowledge!! Each and every part of my care was so cohesive and knowledge-based. I truly have learned SO much from her. I loved that she always had so much knowledge about every single thing I was struggling with/every topic that was talked about in our sessions. I always felt like my care was in such good hands while working with her. I also really really appreciated that she was able to provide care for each and every one of my concerns. This was the first time in my life that I felt like a practitioner has actually listened to me and my symptoms and did what they could to test/treat them.

    — Gina C.

  • "

    In that first one-hour session with Erin, I felt like she already knew me better than my primary care physician, whom I have been seeing for several years. I feel like a different person—a better person. I feel like I went from 50% mental and physical capacity to 100%. I didn’t realize how bad I felt until I finally felt good.

Before applying, please understand who this work is not a good fit for…

  • Our private practice is centered around functional medicine nutrition and root cause resolution. Ideal candidate for our 1:1 work is someone who already has a good handle on a whole foods diet. If you’re looking to focus solely on food and diet, consider one of our nutrition programs in The Collective instead. The membership is for those who are looking to dig in deeper to get to the root of symptoms via intake forms, conversation, and functional testing.

  • Chances are, you’ve already spent a lot of time, money and effort Googling, trying things on your own or meeting with other practitioners. You’re probably tired of throwing things against a wall to see what sticks. You’re working with us to help pull things together, do the detective work, uncover things that may have been overlooked, and fill in the missing puzzle pieces. Unfortunately, we can’t do our job without having the data from functional lab testing. These tests end up saving money in the long run—they can direct the course and pace of treatment so we don’t waste time (and money) playing guessing games.

    Initial lab fees range from $400-$1200. Protocol supplements can cost $50-$200 per month. Total cost and time depends on severity and duration of symptoms and health issues, as well as client compliance. If you’re looking for more cost-effective health support, consider joining one of Erin’s incredibly powerful group programs instead!

  • Root cause resolution and true healing often require change (because if you do what you always did, you get what you always got). This might mean adjusting diet, lifestyle, movement, sleep, relationships, and/or belief patterns in order to support your health. Our most successful clients are those who are self-motivated, committed, and willing to take steps toward healing. As invested as we are in your case, we can’t do the work for you!

  • We meet monthly, but there is no monthly commitment when you join (we don’t want you to feel locked in!) Most of our happy clients stay with us for around 6 months (sometimes more, sometimes less) and we love to tell you that upfront for budget planning.
