Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System · Knoxville, TN
Rooted in science and guided by faith — the Creighton Model helps women understand their bodies, support their hormonal health, and navigate fertility with confidence, clarity, and peace of mind.
What is the Creighton Model?
The Creighton Model FertilityCare™ System (CrMS) is a scientifically-validated, standardized natural family planning method based on observations of a woman's natural biological markers. It is both highly effective for achieving or avoiding pregnancy and a powerful tool for monitoring and maintaining gynecological health.
Because it tracks your body's natural biomarkers, the Creighton Model can help identify underlying health conditions — including hormonal imbalances, PCOS, endometriosis, and more — that conventional medicine often overlooks. When combined with NaProTechnology, it becomes a comprehensive approach to reproductive and hormonal wellness that cooperates with your body's natural design.
"Knowledge, confidence, and a deeper respect for the design of your body."
Who the Creighton Model Serves
Whether you're newly married, navigating infertility, or simply seeking to understand your hormonal health, the Creighton Model meets you where you are.
Achieve or avoid pregnancy naturally, without hormones or devices. The Creighton Model is highly effective when practiced correctly, and fully aligned with Church teaching.
For couples experiencing difficulty conceiving, CrMS — paired with NaProTechnology — helps identify and treat root causes, supporting the body's natural fertility.
Identify conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, PMDD, and more. The Creighton Model reveals what's happening beneath the surface so underlying issues can be addressed.
Engaged couples can learn the method together before marriage, building communication and mutual understanding around fertility and family planning from the start.
The Creighton Model works through every phase of reproductive life, including the post-partum period, supporting natural spacing of children in harmony with your body.
Even outside of family planning, charting your cycle is a window into your whole-body health. Ongoing monitoring with a practitioner supports long-term wellbeing and health awareness.
Your Practitioner
Ashley Searle is a Catholic and Creighton FertilityCare Practitioner Intern serving the greater Knoxville area. Her work is rooted in a deep passion for helping women understand and care for their bodies through the Creighton Model FertilityCare System.
Ashley's dedication comes from her own personal journey. After years of believing they would be unable to have more children due to PMDD, she and her husband sought care through NaProTechnology and the Creighton Model. Through this experience, they were blessed with two additional children. What began as a search for answers became a profound appreciation for the way Creighton supports women's health by identifying and addressing underlying issues.
As a practitioner intern, Ashley is passionate about walking alongside women and couples — helping them gain knowledge, confidence, and a deeper respect for the design of their bodies.
"What began as a search for answers became a profound appreciation for the way our bodies are designed."
