Therapists in Cave Springs, AR

When bonded, we often find ourselves at odds with our partner due to multiple failed attempts to resolve conflict. One person may feel unseen or unwanted, while another believes they are incapable of meeting expectations, so they shut down or lash out. We learn these moves in our earliest attachments and can re-learn to communicate more securely, moving our relationships towards repairing and resolving conflict rather than tearing us apart.
While I primarily work with couples experiencing relationship distress, I also enjoy helping individuals gain a clearer understanding of disruptive patterns and behaviors affecting their lives.

If you’re ready to rediscover balance, joy, and confidence with personalized, compassionate support, I’m here to guide you toward a brighter path forward.

My journey to becoming a psychotherapist has been anything but straightforward. Trauma has been a constant companion in my life starting from a very young age and continuing to adulthood. This trauma has been a relentless teacher to me in big and small ways, forcing me to confront myself through my own therapy and rebuild myself from the ground up. It was during my healing journey that I discovered EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing), and dove deeply into my trauma. Inspired by my personal experience I feel passionate about helping others navigate the complexities and difficulties of their lives.

There is a widespread implication in our society that difficult feelings are unacceptable or inconvenient. If I could assure you of anything, it would be that your emotions are valid and useful, no matter how uncomfortable they are. Let's use them as a guide in discovering what your mind and body are really trying to tell you. I want to support you in becoming a wise leader of yourself, not a prisoner of your pain. With each small step you make toward internal balance, external balance is not far behind.

It’s common to forget our own strengths and values in the hustle and bustle of living. This can set us up for depression, anxiety, and other complications. Therapy can help you to rediscover your inherent strengths and resilience. My approach allows people to make changes happen in their lives by giving them hope and helping them learn to confront irrational thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes. My wish for you is that at the end of each session you feel less isolated and more like the person you were meant to be.

You struggle to return to life as it was before the traumatic event occurred, both for yourself and your child. The prospect of ever feeling ‘normal’ again seems daunting. And the sense of peace that once existed appears unattainable. You may feel resigned to an ongoing struggle, accompanied by intrusive thoughts that life has irreversibly changed. If it's your child, you notice behavior changes or loss of joy. You worry about how to help and ensure they have a bright and happy childhood and amazing future. You long for life you dreamt about. You've tried everything you know and your hope is beginning to slip away.

I'm Karen Fry, LCSW. I’ve been a therapist for a long time (18 years) and I love what I do. I graduated with a Master of Social Work degree from UALR in 2006. I see my profession as a calling. One of my greatest joys is working with someone who begins to see that they have the power to change their life and find healing. The theories and skills that we practice can lead to healing and change. I know because I’ve learned to practice the skills and theories in my own life. I live in Little Rock and enjoy spending time with my two adult kids. I enjoy walking/hiking and bicycling on the Arkansas River Trail.

I primarily help people who are suffering with either (or both!) Insomnia Disorder and PTSD. However I have many years of experience as a therapist and am able to treat depression, anxiety, chronic pain, along with co-occuring substance use disorder and other mental health disorders. I believe in delivering evidence based therapy when clinically indicated. In my experience, clients feel better sooner when they receive the most effective treatment for their diagnosis. I also use a lot of measurement based care to routinely assess progress we are making. My ideal client is someone who is ready to enact change in their life.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
