Private coaching for clarity, recovery, and direction.
You’ve carried others through every crisis but lately, your own soul feels thin.

Coaching with Erika, Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Spiritual Health Educator, helps you rebuild boundaries, renew purpose, and recover sustainable faith in your calling.
Online coaching for pastors, chaplains, and Christian leaders across the U.S. and Canada. Grounded in the Cost of Care framework for burnout and professional renewal.
Structured Coaching for Sustainable Ministry
My Approach: The Cost of Care™ Framework
Every package follows the four phases of The Cost of Care:
- The Drain – Naming what exhaustion and moral injury have taken from you
- The Break – Creating a clean stop to harmful cycles
- The Turn – Reclaiming values, clarity, and self-definition
- The Return – Building a sustainable path forward with integrity
This is a tested process for professionals who want to recover and return to themselves.
Coaching Packages

Meet Erika, RP (CRPO #15213) | Certified Ministry Educator | Founder of In Light Soul Care
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario and a Certified Supervisor-Educator with the Canadian Association for Spiritual Care (CASC/ACSS). For more than 20 years I’ve worked with chaplains, pastors, and ministry leaders across Canada and the U.S., helping them navigate burnout, moral injury, and the loss of vocational identity. My work is deeply rooted in clinical ethics, narrative practice, and spiritual care education.
You don’t need another productivity pep talk. You need someone who understands the soul cost of care and the realities of ministry life: the late-night calls, the pressure to be strong, and the quiet question of whether your calling is sustainable. I work with you to reconnect to your values and vocation without sacrificing your wellbeing or faith.
Through my Cost of Care model, you’ll move from Drain → Break → Turn → Return, a clear path for those in helping professions to recover clarity, boundaries, and spiritual resilience. Each phase is designed to restore energy and identity so you can lead with authentic presence again
