During a clinical fieldwork, Erin experienced the powerful effects of CranioSacral Therapy (CST) on clients’ physical and emotional well-being. This unique experience became an area of interest and eventually led to a different career path. Wanting to transition to a holistic and hands-on healing practice, Erin pursued CST training through Upledger Institute. Erin integrates her experiences working with clients from Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
Offices are located in Barrington, RI and Cranston, RI.
