About Us
The Therapy Experience Team
Dedication. Expertise. Passion.
Founder and Lead Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate of The Therapy Experience.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership, and a Ph.D. in Marriage and Family Therapy, I specialize in faith-informed and compassionate therapy. I am an expert in integrating biblical wisdom and spiritual insights to help people heal and transform their lives. My approach is based on understanding each person’s unique value and fostering a supportive environment for growth. I am dedicated to helping individuals, families, and larger groups build healthier, more fulfilling relationships and navigate life’s challenges with a deeper sense of purpose by creating safe spaces where everyone feels valued.
I have faith that you are the expert on your own life. I am confident that you are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), that God has plans to prosper you and give you hope (Jeremiah 29:11), that you can do all things through Christ (Philippians 4:13), that you are God’s handiwork created for good works (Ephesians 2:10), and that God works for the good in all things (Romans 8:28). These affirm your inherent worth, potential for growth, inner strength, capacity for transformation, purpose, and the goodness in every situation.
In my therapy practice, I integrate these faith-based principles with a humanistic, person-centered approach. This means that I focus on understanding each person’s unique value and fostering a supportive environment for growth.
The Therapy Experience is not about me imposing solutions or prescribing methods. Instead, it is about facilitating your personal journey of self-discovery and healing.

Hi, I am,
Youlander Fulton, M.S in Counseling
Faith-Based Wellness Consultant
I believe in the power of understanding and growth: As a proud mother to Dr. Alaina and “GiGi” to grandson Kalen, I understand the importance of guidance and support. I’m here to walk alongside you on your unique journey, whether it’s in your personal life or your professional career. I believe we all have a hallowed potential for growth and well-being.
I provide Faith-Based Counseling, Consulting, and Guidance, integrating biblical wisdom and spiritual insights with the humanistic principles The Therapy Experience follows, (e.g., empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard). What truly matters to me is fostering a safe and supportive space where you can feel truly understood and accepted. My passion is to help you deepen your spiritual connection and navigate life’s challenges with faith.
I am deeply committed to supporting you as you navigate the often exhilarating yet sometimes challenging journey of personal and professional growth. I integrate my professional expertise with genuine empathy and understanding. My background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Louisiana State University New Orleans (LSUNO) and a Master of Science in Counseling and Student Personnel from Kansas State University, along with over 30 years of consulting experience and a Lifetime Texas Special Education EC-12 Certification. Additionally, I have completed doctoral hours in pastoral counseling, which enriches my ability to provide faith-based guidance. This enables me to connect with individuals on multiple levels and appreciate their unique needs.
