The 1:1 Functional C.A.R.E. Method™
We connect the full picture when no one else has.
We’re the team you come to when nothing adds up—and you’re done guessing.
You’ve followed the plan.
You’ve done the lab testing.
Taken the supplements.
Tried the detoxes.
Tracked the symptoms.
Talked to the specialists.
And you still don’t feel like yourself.
Most practitioners specialize in one system.
We specialize in what connects them all.
When gut issues, hormone swings, fatigue, brain fog, and mood overlap…
We’re the ones who make sense of the whole story, so you can finally feel well.
Because you don’t need just another protocol.
You need someone to put all the pieces together.
Why What You’ve Tried Hasn’t Worked
If you're still dealing with symptoms, it’s not because you haven’t tried hard enough — it’s because the care you’ve received hasn’t connected the dots.
Most health approaches are designed to zero in on one system — your gut, your hormones, your labs — and hand you a standard protocol. But you’re not one system. You’re a whole ass human being.
That’s why over 50% of people who apply to work with us have already worked with other practitioners, and 76% have spent thousands trying to figure out their health independently — with little to show for it.
We don’t believe your case is “too complex.” You just haven’t had someone zoom out, see the big picture, and make it make sense.
We offer root-cause clarity for people who are tired of piecemealing their care.
Not just another protocol, but an entirely different way of thinking.
Most care is fragmented. One system. One symptom. One more guess.
We’re different.
The Functional C.A.R.E. Method™️ offers an entirely new approach to root cause health.
We are redefining healthcare into a process where you *actually* feel cared for.
✔️ When you work with us, WE do the deep dive, so YOU don’t have to.
✔️ You’ll have a supportive & experienced co-pilot on your health journey to finally get answers with the right tools and data.
✔️ And we walk you through it – putting all the pieces together into doable, actionable, and effective steps.
✔️ No more overwhelm. No more confusion. No more feeling stuck.
Our method has helped hundreds of people feel better — and we can help you, too.

OUR UNIQUE PROCESS
The 1:1 Functional C.A.R.E. Method™️
unCover. Align. Resolve. Evolve.
This isn’t another protocol. This is a pattern-recognition process built to decode complex symptoms and deliver real results.
unCover.
STEP 1: Identify What’s Really Driving Your Symptoms
Before your first session, we begin the deep work.
You’ll complete an in-depth intake where you share your symptoms, stories, past labs, and medical history. We review it all so we can walk into your first consult already having a clear picture.
Your First Session: High-Level Clinical Deep Dive
We go beyond the surface. This 60-minute session decodes your health history, labs, lifestyle patterns, emotional contributors, and symptom language. We ask the questions other practitioners haven’t—and start uncovering the “why” behind what you’re feeling.
This is where real root-cause clarity begins.
Align.
STEP 2: Align the Right Data with the Right Plan — For You
Your body isn’t just a collection of lab results. It’s a whole system with a story, and you’ve probably already run some of those labs trying to figure it out.
We don’t start from scratch, and we don’t follow a template. Instead, we build on what you’ve already done, using functional testing only when it adds clarity to your unique path forward.
We walk you through what each piece of data means, how it connects to your symptoms, and why it matters—so your care plan reflects you, not just your numbers.
Clarity Over Confusion. Partnership Over Protocol.
This collaborative process is designed to give you answers that finally make sense and a plan that fits your life.
Resolve.
STEP 3: Personalized C.A.R.E. That Gets Results — With Support That Doesn’t Disappear
Once we’ve identified what your body is trying to tell you, we can address the root issues with ongoing guidance every step of the way.
Because healing doesn’t stop at lab results. And neither do we.
Whether you're dealing with fatigue that won’t lift, digestive issues that control your day, hormonal chaos that derails your month, or mystery symptoms no one else has solved—we’re here to help you make sense of it all.
You’ll never be left guessing.
You’ll have direct access to your practitioner for ongoing communication, and we’ll regularly refine your plan based on your body's response.
Your healing doesn’t follow a monthly schedule—so neither do we.
24/7 Practitioner Access
Your body doesn’t wait 30 days to speak up. We’re here when things shift, so you don’t spiral.
Message your practitioner anytime between sessions. Get real-time support when questions, symptoms, or shifts come up.
You’ll have 24/7 direct access to your practitioner via secure messaging, so you can:
Get clarity on questions as they come up
Share updates and get real-time guidance
Adjust protocols based on how your body is responding
Feel supported without needing to “wait until your next session”
This is what real partnership in healing looks like.
We walk with you so that you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
Evolve.
STEP 4: Reclaim Your Energy & Take Control of Your Health
This isn’t just about “fixing” what’s wrong. It’s about becoming the version of you who doesn’t settle for symptom management anymore.
As your body recalibrates, you’ll experience:
More energy and mental clarity
Fewer flare-ups and faster recovery
Greater emotional stability and resilience
A renewed sense of trust in your body
When your health no longer holds you back, you don’t just feel better—you evolve into the best version of yourself.
You don’t need to try harder — you need better support.
This isn’t for someone looking for a quick fix.
It’s for the person who’s done the things — the protocols, the diets, the supplements — and still doesn’t feel like themselves.
It’s for you if:
You’ve been told your labs are “normal,” but you know your body better than that.
You’ve bounced from practitioner to practitioner, but no one’s connected the dots.
You’re ready to stop outsourcing your intuition and start working with someone who values it.
You want answers—but more importantly, you want a plan.
If you're tired of feeling stuck and you're ready for support that meets the full complexity of who you are—this is for you.
Ready for Care That Finally Adds Up?
This is not a treatment plan. It’s a process of reclaiming your body, clarity, and health, with experts who see the full picture.

From Patient to Practitioner:
Meet the Mind Behind the Method
Created by our founder, Erin, a leader in the field with 15+ years of experience, and an academy that trains the next generation of practitioners.
Erin Holt
Founder & Director
Erin began building her clinical practice over a decade ago and quickly realized a need for a NEW approach to healing. After struggling with her own health challenges that conventional care couldn’t explain, she set out to understand the deeper layers of healing — where physiology meets emotions, mindset, and environment. She understands that our thoughts, beliefs, and experiences deeply influence our physical body, and her work reflects this.
High demand for her unique blend of methodologies and expertise led her to create a school to train other clinicians. Everyone on our team has had extensive training and mentorship directly from Erin, and our work here is a collaborative process.
Erin’s work has touched thousands through her top-rated podcast and group programs.

FAQs
Still have questions? We've got answers.
Here’s what our clients ask before starting their 1:1 journey—and how we support them in saying yes to care that finally adds up.
-
Great question. You’re not just paying for a session—you’re investing in a high-touch partnership that includes:
Monthly 60-minute consults with your dedicated practitioner
In-depth review of intake, labs, and health history
Personalized, fully written C.A.R.E. protocol
Lab interpretation and video breakdowns you keep
Secure 24/7 messaging access to your practitioner between sessions
Real-time adjustments and support as your symptoms shift
Our complete attention on your case—we only work with a limited number of clients to keep this level of care possible
This isn’t a “visit.” It’s a process — with support that doesn’t stop when the call ends.
-
Nope. There’s no long-term contract. Healing is a layered process, but you’re never locked in.
Most of our clients work with us for 4–6 months as they work through the root causes, get clarity on labs, and begin implementing the deeper C.A.R.E. plan. But how long you stay is completely up to you.
We earn your trust month after month—no pressure, just partnership.
-
The average cost of beginning labs for new clients can be anywhere from $400 to $1200.
Our lab recommendations are always tailored to the individual and depend on your symptoms, health history, finances, and our conversation during your initial appointment. This is why we start with an extensive health history intake.
We believe that the best practitioner is not the one who can order the most labs, but the one who can use the most discernment in choosing which labs to order.
We DO NOT upcharge our labs, but instead pass on our practitioner cost directly to you.
-
Not necessarily. If you’ve had recent testing, we’ll review it in detail to see what’s still relevant and where gaps might exist. If needed, we’ll recommend additional labs—but only if they help us see the full picture more clearly.
We’re here to make this process efficient, not repetitive.
-
Yes—especially if you still feel off.
About half of our clients have worked with functional or integrative practitioners before. What’s different here is how we connect everything together. We go beyond protocols and symptom mapping—we look at patterns across systems, your lived experience, and what your body is really saying.
If you've done "all the right things" and still feel stuck, this is where we start again—differently.
-
That’s the perfect time to reach out.
You don’t need a diagnosis or a clear “problem” to start. You need a team that listens, investigates, and helps you connect the dots. Whether you’re dealing with fatigue, gut issues, brain fog, hormonal chaos, or all of the above, we’re here to help you figure it out.
We specialize in complex cases, yes—but also in the people who just need answers.
-
Yes, we accept HSA and FSA cards for eligible services. Let us know at the time of payment, and we’ll walk you through how to apply it.
-
We don’t work with insurance—and here’s why.
The conventional insurance model isn’t built for root-cause, whole-body healing. It prioritizes quick fixes, symptom codes, and short visits—not deep work, personalized care, or proactive wellness. We’ve chosen not to play that game.
We don’t accept insurance or provide superbills because what we offer doesn’t fit neatly into a billing code. And frankly, we believe your healing deserves more than what the insurance industry is willing to reimburse.
Instead, we’ve built a model that puts your care, not a claims process, at the center.
