Show Notes

Our final guest of Season 3 of Culturally Speaking is Dr. Erica Adkins, a Licensed Psychologist and owner of a group practice in Colorado. She has a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Oregon. She lives in Colorado with her partner, 3 children, 2 Great Danes and a Boxer Dog.

Healing from trauma is much like climbing a mountain. It’s intimidating, it’s hard, it hurts, but the satisfaction of reaching the summit is worth every second. As a licensed psychologist, Dr. Erica Adkins spent years studying how to help people heal from trauma, depression, anxiety, and grief. However, her most poignant education came from surviving a string of traumatic events including working in a prison, infidelity, domestic violence, sexual assault, divorce, and military deployment.  

Erica’s memoir, Rock Bottom is Where Bad Bitches Are Built chronicles her journey from rock bottom to resilience that will inspire readers to find their own path back from trauma. It is a gripping and heart-wrenching account of the most traumatic decade of Erica’s life. You are NOT what has happened to you, and you are NOT alone on this journey. Put one foot in front of the other and take the first step toward healing. 

Erica’s book, Rock Bottom Is Where Bad Bitches Are Built, is available on Amazon in ebook and paperback https://www.amazon.com/dp/1736516108
