Erica Tatum-Sheade
Psychotherapist - LMSW
You may have found this page because you’re having a very difficult time with a child due to separation or divorce, past abuse, or behavioral issues. I am dedicated to assisting children and families who are currently experiencing difficult times to develop and strengthen interpersonal skills (both within the family and outside of it), create healthier relationships overall, and develop and achieve positive goals.My experience gives me unique insight into effective work with children and families. Because I have significant experience working with children and families from both a state and a tribal social services perspective, I understand the nuances of the “system” and how to best advocate and assist families that are having troubles. I have almost a decade of experience working within the child welfare system (in CPS case management, tribal case management, and foster care), I have unique insight as to the issues facing many of these families.For many families seeking help can be a very humbling experience and my goal is to walk beside you on your journey to heal your family. I believe everyone has the capacity within them to make positive changes as long as they are given the correct tools.
