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 am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 4 years of experience in mental health care. I specialize in supporting individuals facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. I combine evidence-based medication management with supportive therapy to promote healing and long-term well-being. I am dedicated to creating a compassionate, client-centered environment where individuals feel heard, understood, and empowered in their journey toward mental health.

I earned my Master’s in Nursing from Walden University, where I developed a strong commitment to evidence-based care and holistic treatment. My approach blends medication management with supportive therapy to address each client’s unique needs, build coping strategies, and foster resilience and stability.

Taking the first step toward mental health care can feel overwhelming, but it is also an important act of strength. My goal is to provide thoughtful, personalized support that empowers you to move forward with confidence. If you’re ready to begin your path toward greater stability and well-being, I encourage you to schedule an appointment.
