About Us
Built on accountability, dignity,
and trust.
Fulcra Center for Change is a private practice serving individuals, couples, and families across Washington State.
Who We Are
Fulcra Center for Change is a Washington State behavioral health and domestic violence services organization. We provide clinical assessments, state-approved treatment, and counseling for individuals, families, and the courts. With a standard of practice built on safety, evidence, and respect for everyone involved.
We are trauma-informed without being naïve. Compassionate without abandoning accountability. Clinically rigorous without being cold.
Every service we provide is shaped by the specific people and circumstances involved. What stays consistent is our commitment to the safety of victims and children, the dignity of every person we work with, and clinical practice grounded in evidence - not assumption.
