History

Stages of Change Psychotherapy, PLLC was created in October of 2013 by Dr. Erica Adkins (formerly Dr. Erica Fitzgerald). At that time Dr. Adkins was working as a Special Management Unit Psychologist at USP Florence, CO. After giving birth to her daughter, she was faced with a tough ethical dilemma at work. Displeased with the outcome, she made the decision to put her family first and enter the world of private practice. From 2013 to 2016 Dr. Adkins was the sole practitioner, administrative assistant, billing coordinator, and scheduler. In 2016 she began expanding with moving to a larger office suite and adding a counseling intern, 2 licensed professional counselors and a licensed psychologist. By 2018 they had outgrown their office and moved yet again into a larger suite and continued to add clinicians. At present SOCP employs 11 clinicians and 2 administrative staff members.
