In Person Therapists in Fayetteville, AR

I offer in person and online services in a calm and relaxing environment.
We all want to live fulfilling, meaningful lives that include better relationships with self and significant others. Sometimes we get trapped in challenges, difficulties, and struggles. Coming to terms with past, present, or future disillusionment takes courage and time. My role is to help you learn to cope with your challenging situation or make sense of the hurt you feel. We will work together to develop a plan to change in a realistic, attainable manner that can provide hope.

What could your life look like six months from now if you took a step toward healing today? Often, the hardest part is just starting. Depression, anxiety, grief, shame, and a number of other treatable concerns can leave you in a hopeless place. Are friends/family at a loss of how to help you? Are you struggling with a recent change in your life? Do you feel alone? If you remember nothing else, I want you to remember that you are more capable than you believe, and even a speck of hope is still hope.

Being a human is hard sometimes! We all experience pain, stress, and trauma. Through safety, connection, and new experiences, our hearts can mend and we can create beautiful new things. We all need each other. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe space for you to feel seen, safe, and secure to share your authentic self. My desire is to meet you right where you are in your pain while helping you feel free to be fully you.

As a therapist I try to be very pragmatic: what works and what is true, in my opinion have to be the same thing. The Adlerian question: "What is it that will be different for you when we have successfully finished psychotherapy?" Is the navigating principle of the therapeutic map. I am convinced (and research supports me) that the counseling relationship is, by far the most powerful positive factor in successful psychotherapy.

There are many reasons people seek therapy. Sometimes there is a sense of sadness that just doesn't go away. Sometimes anxiety is so bad that one is unable to leave one's home. One may be in crisis, finding that coping skills are no longer working. And sometimes the past interferes with the present, causing a lack of self-esteem, sleep disturbance, self-harm, nightmares, flashbacks, loss of time, suicidal thoughts. And sometimes one may feel stuck in an abusive relationship, unable to assert oneself to get one's own needs met.

I have maintained a private counseling practice for over 30 years. I work with individual, relationship and family issues. Cognitive behavioral strategies are utilized for skills training such as anger management, stress reduction, communication skills, and emotional regulation. Couples counseling and stepfamilies are areas of special interest. Theoretical perspectives in these areas include interpersonal relations concepts such as object relations theory and relational psychodynamics. Individual counseling focusing on depression, mood disorders, trauma, anxiety, substance use, and personality concerns tend to be approached from a psychodynamic psychotherapy perspective.
