Hi, I'm Erica.

I’m Erica Woodward, the founder of Pure Intention Services. I provide diagnostic assessments for ADHD and Autism, neurodiversity-affirming psychotherapy, and health coaching. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana, my practice focuses on delivering top-quality care, specializing in ADHD, Autism, trauma, and related issues. I utilize a person-centered approach, integrating a variety of therapeutic approaches to guide individuals through their healing journey, including:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Attachment Theory

• Humanistic Theory

• Solution-Focused Therapy

• Integrative Health

• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

• Trauma-Informed Care

Beyond my professional role, I'm a passionate advocate for self-determination and accountability. My personal experiences as a transracial adoptee and a late-diagnosed Autistic and ADHD cis-gendered woman (a mouthful, huh?) have profoundly shaped my approach, making me uniquely attuned to the needs of neurodivergent individuals.

As a mother of four human children, four fur babies (three cats and one dog), and a wife to an Army Veteran, I balance personal and professional responsibilities with unwavering tenacity and empathy. I frequently refer to my crew as the "Woodward Whiplash" because if you know how rowdy a neurodivergent family can be, then you know!

I emphasize the importance of self-care to clients by engaging in important practices myself, which includes spending time with friends, exploring new places, learning, humor, and overall empathy. As a therapist, I see you as a human, too, just as I hope you see me in care.
