Themes & Results

Featured Trainings & Workshops

My talks and evidence-based trainings go deep into the areas that matter most:

How we think, How we connect, How We Recover.

ACEs:

Buried But Not Gone- How Your Past Is Impacting Your Now

... Understanding How Adverse Childhood Experiences Shape First Responder Stress and Behavior
Unresolved trauma doesn’t disappear when you put on the uniform. This session helps responders connect the dots between early adversity and present-day coping habits, burnout, and communication struggles without shame, blame, or over-disclosure.

EMOTIONAL REGULATION:

Rebuilding Broken Bridges-Understanding & Overcoming Emotional Shutdown

... How to Spot It, Navigate It, and Reconnect Without Pushing Too Hard
When a responder shuts down emotionally, it doesn’t just affect them; it ripples through the team and home life. Learn what emotional shutdown really is, why it happens, and how to re-establish trust and connection when words stop working.

Beyond Grit: The P.R.E.S.S.U.R.E. System for Tactical Recovery

... Using the P.R.E.S.S.U.R.E. Method to Regulate, Recharge, and Reconnect

Burnout doesn’t happen all at once. It builds quietly, shift after shift, stress after stress, until you’re running on fumes or blowing up over nothing. This session teaches responders how to release that buildup before it wrecks their health, home life, or performance.

The P.R.E.S.S.U.R.E. System helps identify their points and build a recovery routine that fits real life. Transform regulation into a daily habit on shift, between calls, and at home.

MINDSET:

Clear the Lens, Change the Outcome: How Mental Scripts Are Hijacking Your Crews' Reactions

... And What You Can Do to Take Back Control
You’re not weak. You’re dysregulated. Learn how chronic stress and trauma hijack your nervous system and learn simple, tactical ways to reset it so you can lead, connect, and stay present no matter what the shift throws at you.

For departments ready to train their people not just to respond to chaos, but to respond to themselves.

RELATIONSHIPS:

The Hardest Call to Make: Reconnecting When You've Checked Out

... Even When the Job Leaves You Drained, Distant, or Detached
The job doesn’t stay at the station and neither does the stress. This session offers first responders (and their partners) tools for rebuilding emotional connection, repairing communication breakdowns, and protecting their relationships from the wear and tear of the work.

TEMPERAMENT:

Decoding the Disconnect: Why You're Being Misunderstood (and What to Do About It)

... Understanding Yourself and Others for Better Results
Not everyone hears things the same way, and not everyone communicates stress the same way. Using a temperament-based framework (WIDP), this session helps responders decode themselves and their teammates, so they can communicate clearly, support skillfully, and lead with confidence.

This is a partial list. Reach out to discuss your specific training.

My Approach

The PRESSURE System™

I have developed a simple but powerful process I call the PRESSURE System™ designed especially for people who live and lead under intense demands.

This isn’t a mindset hack. It’s a whole-human approach to reclaiming your emotional clarity, internal safety, and forward momentum.

• Physical Release
• Routine Establishment
• Emotional Expression
• Social Connection
• Stress Management Skills
• Understanding Triggers
• Recovery Rituals
• Emergency Protocols

I incorporate this framework into my trainings & workshops for immediate understanding and results.

Client Stories

What Will Be Your Success Story?

Here’s what they have to say about their experience.

"Working with Erin has been life-changing for our marriage. I was skeptical at first about doing individual sessions instead of meeting together, but it turned out to be incredibly effective. Erin helped us understand that, while we thought we were communicating well, we were missing the mark. She gave us the tools and insight we needed to truly connect and navigate challenges together.

Erin genuinely cares, this isn’t just a job to her. Her compassion and commitment made all the difference. I truly don’t think we’d be where we are today without her guidance."

"I was living in a bottle before I met Erin. She gets us. I wouldn't be where I'm at today if I didn't start talking to her. I'd be fired, dead or locked up. She saved me. I'm sure there are countless others who feel the same way. She gets what I'm going through and doesn't treat me like a kid in art class. Thank you so much!"

“I feel the most confident I’ve felt in my life since Erin and I started working together.”

Mike O.

Retired LEO

"As First Responders we exist in a different reality than most. I existed in a different world than anyone that loved me. People outside of our culture can’t understand what we struggle with….and I’m happy that they don’t have to. When I met Erin I knew I met “my people.” Hours of great conversation with this badass woman lead to me seeing things the way they really are and not the way my PTSD was making me see them. How was this possible? When you are at your lowest point in life there is nothing more important than having someone that has been there and fought their way through to the other side. Erin has been where you are and knows how to get you through the toughest times of your life. I consider Erin someone that I trust with my life. As any First Responder knows, that level of trust is earned and not given."
