Therapists in Little Rock, AR

Feeling exhausted, stressed to the max, or not like yourself anymore? Maybe you're going through a big life change or relationship crisis. Maybe things feel like they could spiral out of control at any moment. Racing thoughts and images of failure are so distracting you can’t focus on what you know you need to do next. You’re not sure what you need, and you also know you want to make a change.

Are you looking for a place to help you explore healing? Have you gotten to a place that you feel like you may need guidance to help you keep going? Are you burdened with depression, anxiety, grief, low-self esteem, or even life transitions? Most of all, have you come to understand that you are HUMAN and you just need a person that you can lean on for help?

See bio video on my website: As a pastor for almost a decade, a teacher for twelve years, and a father of 6 kids, it has been my pleasure to enter into the stories and lives of countless people. I have been working through difficulties with teens, couples, parents, and families for a long time.

I received my Master's degree from Southern Arkansas University, and I have worked with clients of all ages. I especially enjoy working with teenagers and young adults! I have been trained in multiple methods of counseling. I often apply the method of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy because I believe that God has given us the power of choice to grow in our mental health through practical exercises, and I would love to work with you as you battle your depression, anxiety, trauma, or any challenge you are facing.

Starting counseling simply means that you believe personal healing and improvement are possible. However, reaching out and acknowledging that you need some assistance in this growth process is a very tough thing to do. Further, this first step of reaching out often runs counter to your culture and/or the rules of your family system. Nonetheless, connecting with an experienced and understanding counselor can create a therapeutic relationship enabling you to openly and honestly explore more effective coping strategies to achieve your goals.

My ideal client is self motivated, verbally expressive, with therapy goals of improvement and growth. They ask questions and use suggestions from session. They usually like homework and I love to see the change in them.

Welcome and thank you for visiting me on Psychology Today! I appreciate that you are taking this step and reaching out for support. I know it can be overwhelming to manage your emotions, experiences and problems on your own. And I believe that counseling is the best tool to help you experience growth and healing. Counseling can help you understand why problems have occurred and assist you in learning ways to cope with them. At Leslie Salmon Counseling Services you don't have to face life's challenges by yourself!

Bio video on my website...When you pay for therapy, you're expecting something of tangible value. All too often what you get instead is a nice person on a couch and little else. That’s not me. With high energy and humor, I help people recover from sexual addiction; I help couples lost in conflict and hopelessness; and I help parents with teens and young adults. I work with sexual abuse, attachment wounds, and traumas/PTSD of all kinds. I am a Christian, and I approach therapy from a clinical perspective.

Therapy is just talk. Or is it? If you’re reading this, first I’m glad you’re here! Reaching out for help is no easy task, but that you’re considering it already shows that you’re choosing yourself. Maybe you’re feeling stuck? Wanting to work through some life issues that have surfaced for you? Or just do some check-in and reflection work for your current path. The reasons for seeking therapy vary and differ from person to person. Again I’m just glad you’re here taking step one.

I believe that the answers are inside you, but they get confused and lost among life's daily battles. They get buried under the opinions of bystanders who don't have to walk in your shoes and experts whose life looks nothing like yours. My goal as a therapist is to help you hear YOU. To clear space where that small voice that knows you better than anyone else, can finally be heard. My job is to listen, to see if you're hearing what I'm hearing and to reflect back where your heart and your head aren't matching up.

Your life feels like an absolute $hit show most days but the show must go on. Your drug use has shattered all of your close relationships. You put on a fake smile, expensive perfume, your best cuff links, and you boss your way through the day.

It sucks and we get it. Let's work together to get your life feeling manageable again. We are a small, black owned practice with 2 generations and 35 years of combined experience. Bring your worst; we got you!

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, having relationship issues, or just need someone to speak with regarding managing your current situation?

You need a skilled professional to provide a safe environment for you to work through your thoughts and feelings and provide a different perspective as you navigate through these struggles. You want and need psychological and practical skills to help you address these issues .

We all struggle to find balance in the roles we are trying to maintain in our lives. Our past, relationship struggles, motivation, anxiety and depression can all complicate our attempts to navigate how to be the best version of ourselves. Many of us "know" what to do, but have not successfully identified ways to manifest that into action. While we cannot change the things we have experienced, or the behavior of those around us, we can identify successful ways to approach our difficulties. A part of moving forward can be gaining more awareness of the mind/body connection and exploring insight and behaviors to make lasting change.
