Meet the Team
Dr. Erica Barela, Owner + Chiropractor
Dr. Erica Barela began practicing chiropractic in 2014, then opening Anchor Chiropractic in 2016 to better serve rural and small-town Nebraskans. In August 2021 we re-branded to be Prairie Wellness Collective. Dr. Erica’s goal with Prairie Wellness Collective was to create a collective of healers under one roof. In the Lincoln office we have two massage therapists and in the Plymouth office we have one massage therapist and one esthetician. While we’re a small group under one roof, we love partnering with other specialists and healers to help the whole person heal.
Her practice has allowed her to help many patients with a range of needs: from injury rehabilitation to chronic pain and autoimmune conditions; ADD, ADHD, anxiety and depression to preventative wellness care. Her most favorite part of practice is helping individuals and families thrive through natural lifestyle practices.
When she’s not between offices, you can find Dr. Erica doing projects around her home or gardening with her husband Aaron and four dogs.
Jenny Carter, Office Manager
Jenny is our office manager + billing specialist. Jenny has been with Prairie Wellness Collective since September 2022 and is such an asset to the team. Not only is she Dr. Erica’s second hand and “fine detail brain,” she brings to the team many years of experience working within the property/causality insurance world. After having her fourth child in July of 2022, Jenny was ready for a new challenge. Jenny and Dr. Erica crossed paths in 2015 when Jenny was a patient at an office Dr. Erica was an associate at. Jenny is based in our Lincoln office.
When she’s not at the office, you can find Jenny spending time with her family! As a busy mom of four, she’s most likely at a baseball game.
