About Erica.
My name is Erica, the founder of LiveWell Total Integrative Health.
​
I’m a chemical engineer by degree and a control systems engineer by career. My professional work has shaped how I think — in terms of systems, constraints, feedback loops, and how small factors accumulate over time. That lens continues to influence how I approach complexity and decision-making in this work.
​
In my personal life, I grew up around instability, intensity, and patterns that caused harm over time. I saw how sustained pressure and unpredictability can shape how people think, respond, and function — especially when those patterns remain unexamined.
​
As I moved through different stages of my life, I found myself drawn to integrative approaches to health as a way to better understand challenges I was experiencing myself. What made the biggest difference wasn’t a single change, but developing a better understanding of what I was responding to, what was within my control, and what wasn’t.
​
I realized that helping others arrive at that same understanding — without pressure, judgment, or oversimplification — was work I wanted to do.
​
That is what guides my work today.
How I work
I approach this work the same way I approach complex systems: by slowing things down enough to see what’s actually happening.
​
Rather than isolating symptoms or jumping to solutions, we look at patterns — how demand, recovery, routines, and physiology interact over time. This creates space for understanding before action.
​
My role isn’t to diagnose or prescribe. It’s to help you make sense of what you’re noticing so decisions are informed, measured, and appropriate to your context.
​
The process is collaborative, thoughtful, and paced. There’s no pressure to change everything at once, and no assumption that something is “wrong.” We focus on understanding first, then deciding what support makes sense.
What this tends to support
Clients often come to this work when they want to:
-
understand symptoms that don’t fit neatly into standard explanations
-
stop guessing and overcorrecting
-
regain steadiness without pushing harder
-
make decisions from a place of understanding rather than urgency
What this work is not
This work is not designed to:
-
replace medical care
-
provide diagnosis or treatment
-
offer quick fixes
​
Clarity comes from seeing the full picture, not forcing outcomes.
