Therapy Intensives for Couples & Women of Color in California
Go deeper.
Move differently.
Find your way out of the dark.
When you feel disoriented by recurrent pain, stuck in old family patterns, or confused about how you became who you are, a weekly therapy hour isn't always enough. You need space to be held, understood, and safely challenged. Rooted in the Soul offers focused therapy intensives and restorative therapy retreats retreats in California designed specifically for multiracial and twice-exceptional women, moms, and couples. Together, we will slow down the noise, look honestly at the systems beneath your pain, and create a clear path forward.
The Recurring Pattern: You find yourself asking, "Why does this keep happening?" You are curious about yourself, ready to look at family-of-origin dysfunction, and hungry for deeper insights.
What brings you here today?
The Relational Strain: You are in a partnership that feels distant or complicated, and you have a hunch that old attachment habits are getting in the way of real connection.
The Need for Clarity: You are open, you are needing, and you are ready to do the brave work of understanding who you are and who you can still become.

A Therapy Nerd Who Speaks the Unfiltered Truth
Hi, I’m Erica Hudson, LMFT. I am here to support other women, moms, and couples to avoid the painful things I’ve had to learn the hard way through tough personal experiences and intense life changes. I don't sit silently or hide behind cold, institutional clinical masks. I practice with radical honesty, deep integrity, and an obsession with relationship and attachment systems.
When we work together, I listen, I care, and I actively engage with you. I am known for saying the hard things directly when you need to hear them, pausing to hold space when things get heavy, and celebrating your wins with uncontained excitement. My goal is to guide you out of the dark and scary forest of your past, pushing you toward your absolute best once clarity and insight are abundant.
