SPOTLIGHT
The conception journey is a complex and personal one and can be a struggle for many women. For far too long, the focus for a solution has been on the medical aspects. I, on the other hand, offer my clients a non-invasive approach to “unexplained infertility.” Allowing the journey to be experienced from an energetic perspective, I foster the experience of focusing on connecting with the “soul baby”: the baby destined to be part of your family, regardless if they come to you biologically, through IVF, IUI, surrogate, or adoption.
With my background as a Reiki Master, Shamanic Practitioner, and Sound Healer, I recognize and align areas that may be causing blocks. I am an intuitive who connects with soul babies to receive and share messages and signs. I work from an energetic and soul perspective. My goal is to help women shift from struggling to conceive to an “empowered conception.”

Why are you passionate about your specialty, and what sets you apart from other practitioners?
My personal journey took me from a successful corporate career down a path of a frightening health diagnosis (multiple sclerosis) that forced me to change my entire life. The bright side of this shocking news opened my world up to remember my connection with the universe. When I conceived my own two baby boys, my intuitive ability to connect with soul babies and spiritual guides was re-ignited. My own healing journey helped me realize that I needed to support others who are scared, sick, stuck, or have forgotten their own power.
Tell us about the best memory you have about being a holistic practitioner.
My favorite moment as a practitioner is when my clients call me to tell me they are pregnant, adopting, having their soul baby via surrogate, or have made peace with their journey in general. The most recent “best memory” is when a client who’d had eight miscarriages chose to work with me as a last resort, which resulted in bringing in their destined baby. Bringing light babies into the world is my purpose.

As an Integrative Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, I provide holistic care to children and families bridging the gap between traditional and conventional medicine through a proactive approach to wellness. Guiding parents through the challenges of parenthood is an important part of the process. I have been caring for children and their families since 1990.

The children are our future and it is crucial that parents are guided in the right direction to build a strong foundation for optimal growth and development for their kids.
My focus is on gut health and mental wellness, the root of overall health and well-being. Components of care are structured around genetics, nutrition, lifestyle factors, alternative therapies, and science-based supplementation.
I have so many wonderful memories of the hugs and thank yous I have received from my patients and the parents for being a part of their lives and the difference I have made, for listening, being nonjudgmental, supportive, and compassionate.

Erika Dworkin— Vitathena Wellness
Before my new business, Vitathena Wellness, I owned the Manchester Parkade Health Shoppe, nutrition specialists trusted since 1956, for 12 years. Through Vitathena Wellness, my new store without walls, I continue to offer nutrition consultations to empower my clients to address a wide range of health issues with dietary and lifestyle changes. I also offer over 14,000 natural products in my online natural dispensary.
Why are you passionate about your specialty?
Throughout my life, I have witnessed people heal from tailored holistic regimens. I care deeply about the general well-being of the members of our greater community.
I have lifelong experience with both natural and Western medicine. Following in the footsteps of my mentor, Michael Dworkin, PD, CCN, a licensed clinical nutritionist with a doctorate in pharmacy, I offer personalized, evidence-based guidance that incorporates various healing modalities. Conditions I assess include hormonal imbalances, pain and inflammation, systemic yeast overgrowth, obesity, stress/anxiety, depression, and immunity.
I have empowered thousands to live more vibrantly, so it is difficult to select just one. It was gratifying to learn that one client no longer struggled with severe menopausal hot flashes and that another’s IBS symptoms subsided.
