Hello, I’m Erin Herlihy, the founder and guiding force behind Raising Sevak—a transformative space dedicated to elevating your life, one empowered step at a time. With over seven years as a certified life coach, 16 years as a skilled hypnotist, and an equal depth of experience as an NLP practitioner, I’ve devoted my career to unlocking human potential. I’m also a certified personal trainer with expertise in nutrition and strength training, blending mind, body, and spirit to create lasting change. At Raising Sevak, we don’t just talk about growth; we ignite it, helping you rise as a “sevak”—a devoted servant to your own highest self.

In my life coaching practice, I specialize in executive function mastery, guiding both adults and children through the chaos of daily life to build clarity, focus, and unstoppable momentum. Whether you’re overcoming deep-seated limiting beliefs that hold you back or pivoting your entire life direction toward something profoundly fulfilling, my approach is tailored to your unique journey. I empower you to shatter barriers, redefine success on your terms, and step into a reality where every decision aligns with your true purpose. From reframing past traumas to reparenting yourself with compassion, reclaiming your inner child, and forging a resilient self-identity, my sessions are a sanctuary for profound healing and reinvention.

A cornerstone of my work at Raising Sevak is supporting adults across the spectrums of autism, ADHD, and trauma. These aren’t labels—they’re invitations to breakthrough. I help you dismantle limiting beliefs and behaviors that sabotage progress, fostering strategies that honor your neurodiversity while amplifying your strengths. Through targeted coaching, we transform challenges into superpowers, breaking free from self-destructive patterns and cultivating executive function skills that lead to independence, joy, and achievement. My clients often describe this as a rebirth: emerging from survival mode into a life of thriving, where ADHD-fueled creativity becomes a career catalyst, autistic perspectives unlock innovative problem-solving, and trauma’s grip loosens to reveal untapped resilience.

As a health coach, I integrate holistic wellness into every aspect of our work. Drawing from my certifications in personal training, nutrition, and strength building, I craft personalized plans that fuel your body as powerfully as we nourish your mind. Whether it’s optimizing your diet for sustained energy, designing strength routines to build physical confidence, or addressing individual needs to accelerate your fitness potential, I meet you where you are—no master-level expertise required, just committed guidance to help you embody strength from the inside out.

Hypnosis is another pillar of Raising Sevak, where I harness 16 years of clinical expertise to facilitate deep, subconscious shifts. Imagine gently parenting yourself through hypnosis, reclaiming your inner child with love and wisdom, and dissolving fears that have long dictated your path. We work through limiting beliefs, break self-destructive patterns, and rewire your mind for abundance. This isn’t just life coaching—it’s alchemy. Clients emerge with lives transformed: careers redirected toward passion, relationships deepened with authenticity, and a profound sense of freedom that changes everything.

NLP weaves seamlessly through it all, enhancing every session with powerful techniques to reprogram thought patterns, enhance communication, and align your neurology with your aspirations. It’s the thread that ties hypnosis, coaching, and health together, ensuring changes stick and evolve.

Why choose to work with me at Raising Sevak? Because my unique blend of life coaching, hypnosis, NLP, and health expertise isn’t just comprehensive—it’s revolutionary, tailored for those ready to transcend ordinary limits. I’ve helped countless adults and kids navigate neurodiversity, trauma, and self-doubt into lives of purpose and vitality, with overwhelming positive feedback from the public and profound testimonials from clients who’ve seen their worlds expand.

Full review from long time client and wonderful person: 

Working with Erin has added insurmountable value to my life, not just in the day to day, but in my perspective as a whole. For approximately the last six years, I’ve had the distinct pleasure and benefit of working with Erin periodically & traversing a multitude of aspects that I was desperately needing guidance with. Together we’ve explored hypnosis for healing old wounds and exploring inner child work to better understand how I was continuing harmful cycles & overlooking opportunities to better care for myself. We’ve worked at length on confidence building, and strategies that have helped me to be much stronger while managing & leading my small business. One invaluable aspect of what Erin’s brought to my table is her dedicated research and understanding for the neurodiverse crowd, in my case she’s paid special attention to what I experience as a late diagnosed AuDHD adult who has more than a neurotypical’s expected cognitive distortions. She’s more than just your coach in that she partners with you in such an intimate, up close & personal manner, which makes all the more difference when she’s able to pick up on body language indicators that may suggest I am shutting down, or becoming stressed & therefore disassociating or “sheltering” myself. She’s able to navigate all of these things, while listening my words through to the items most inhibiting me from where I am currently and where I need or would like to be. 

Erin stands above the masses in her unique space by her dedication to not just her clients, but to her commitment to furthering education inspired by the needs she recognizes in her clients. While the world is full of providers, counselors, and coaches alike- one distinction should be made to fully explain why Erin is different: many professionals in this space self-qualify by their education; whereas Erin truly understands and then through her personal understanding, proactively seeks research and education specific to what will best help her clients. Erin comes as your friend, and goes to work for you just the same. With the utmost respect for data integrity, confidentiality, patience, diligence, honesty, and compassion, I don’t believe there’s anyone else in this space that holds a candle to the overall richness of what comes with partnering with Erin Herlihy.
