Erika believes that a healer does not heal others, but helps others remember how to heal themselves. She is often asked if she is a shaman or medicine woman - Her reply? A shaman is a specific healing lineage from Mongolia and Siberia, and the term “medicine woman” is extremely overused these days. She has been named a wisdom keeper by others, and openly shares her wisdom with everyone, and considers herself a ceremonial leader for all who seek healing and want to participate.
Born in Canada, she honors all of the ancestors of her multi-racial heritage, but does not identify as First Nations. The wisdom and healing ceremonies she carries come from her 30 year walk on a medicine path and Red Road. She has dedicated over half her life to working with Indigenous elders from North & South America and their ancestral ceremonies, altars and medicinal plants.
Erika is honored to have received their blessings to continue their traditions with honor, dignity, and respect. She leads healing & life transition ceremonies, temazcal (sweat lodge), tobacco, water blessings, as well as personal healing sessions.
