Lauren Fulton
@laurenfulton
I design human-centered behavioral health programs, patient experiences, and clinical teams.
What I'm looking for
I've led specialized PHP/IOP behavioral health programs at Compass Health Center, directing clinical and operational delivery for adults with OCD, complex anxiety, mood disorders, and anxiety disorders. I currently support Adult Virtual Programs as Interim Associate Director while continuing direct clinical care in a fully virtual setting.
I’ve managed multidisciplinary teams, designed psychoeducational curriculum and patient-facing resources, launched a clinical internship, and improved workflows that reduce administrative burden and strengthen patient access. My work connects clinical quality, compliance, staff development, and patient engagement across onsite and remote care.
I’m now bringing my clinical depth to patient and member experience, wellness program design, health communications, and organizational wellbeing—where human-centered thinking meets operational credibility.
