I am a licensed professional counselor associate (LPCA) with 7 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through emotional and relational challenges. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, communication difficulties, eating disorders, and life stressors. I am passionate about helping clients recognize their strengths, gain new perspectives, and feel more empowered in their daily lives.

I earned my master’s degree in marriage and family therapy from Abilene Christian University. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and individualized, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and motivational interviewing to help clients build practical tools for lasting change.

I understand that reaching out for support can be a vulnerable and overwhelming experience. I create a safe, compassionate space where you feel respected and heard. Together, we’ll identify root concerns, strengthen coping skills, and work toward meaningful growth. When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule a session and begin your journey forward.

I’m Erica Fulton, a licensed professional counselor who believes people are meant not just to survive, but to thrive and live out their purpose. I bring together lived experience, clinical training, and evidence-based care to support clients navigating trauma, grief, ADHD, and major life transitions. After losing my husband, I took time to rebuild, and that experience shapes how I show up in therapy. I specialize in working with individuals impacted by trauma or change, helping them reconnect with themselves, process their experiences, and build tools for stability, growth, and long-term healing at their own pace. 

My approach is warm, relational, and trauma-informed. I prioritize creating a safe space where clients can explore their story and emotions. I draw from evidence-based practices like CPT, DBT skills, and grief-informed care. I tailor each session to support healing, insight, and practical growth in a way that feels grounded and collaborative. 

Healing takes courage, and starting therapy is a meaningful step. I strive to ensure you feel supported and not alone in the process. I bring compassion, clinical skill, and steady presence to our work together. If you’re ready to reconnect with your strength, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, I would be honored to support you.

I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling from Bellevue University, utilizing evidence-based approaches, CBT, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, person-centered, and solution-focused therapy.

Current events, stress, and politics can get heavy, especially when you’re the one everyone else counts on. I provide a space to be honest about your personal struggles and the world around you. You don’t have to carry it alone. I am here to help you make sense of it, get steady, and move forward with clarity and strength. I'm ready to listen.
