Therapists in Arkansas

My approach to therapy begins with a belief that we are all wired for connection. Connection happens when we are heard and understood in relationship to others. I engage our work through compassion, curiosity, humor, perspective, and honesty. I believe that creating a space to slow down and tune into our emotions, beliefs, and responses is a primary way to heal, grow, and authentically relate to others. My passion in counseling is to create a relationship built on safety, trust, and hope, where people feel accepted and challenged to grow in new and meaningful ways. .

Are you questioning your journey throughout life? Has something been different and you just haven't been able to put your finger on it? As a late diagnosed autistic, I see you. I would love to help you navigate the newness of your journey.

I created Live in Harmony Counseling to be a nurturing haven for anyone burdened by trauma, grief, or depression. I understand that life's challenges can leave us feeling weary and in dire need of solace. As a counselor, I'm here to embrace you. The good, bad, messy, silly — all of you. I can’t erase your pain or trauma. I wish I could, but I believe there is so much growth we can achieve from sharing our hardships, feeling our pain, and allowing ourselves to be imperfect as we heal. Trauma, life, and pain happen. This isn’t a way of minimizing our experiences, but to be ok with being sad, angry, anxious, depressed or just blagh.

I believe you already possess within you, everything you need to work through whatever issue you bring to my office. You simply need some help pulling it out. Maybe you know exactly what the issue is or maybe you are having a hard time pinpointing what is going on, but you know something "feels off". Two of the biggest questions we tackle in your first session are, "What final made you decide to come to therapy?" and "What do you hope to gain by coming to therapy?" These two questions help lay the foundation we will build on.

It is natural to experience pain as well as joy during life. It is not, however, natural to remain in a state of suffering. I believe we are meant to live happy, joyful lives within a background of inner peace. Sometimes life's circumstances throw us off balance and professional help is needed to find our way back. That's what I do, that's my purpose, to help others regain, or possibly even discover for the first time that life is not to be feared or dreaded because of hurtful emotions.

Do you struggle to find happiness and peace on a daily basis? Does depression, anxiety, or grief rule your day. The struggle is real. We all develop stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and other issues when our lives are turned upside down by events that we cannot control. I am here to help and have professional training and education to do so. The key is to identify the source of the struggle and how to navigate and develop coping skills to manage it effectively. I utilize several approaches including CBT, DBT, faith based, person centered, strengths based, and mindfulness based therapy modalities for you to reach your goals.

I have worked with a wide range of people on a number of different issues. The majority has been depression and anxiety, but I have helped people with various mental health challenges that people face. In working with anyone, my main focus is on seeing the issue from their perspective and helping them overcome it or develop ways of coping. In seeking out therapy, for most people, there is a fear of engaging in it. A person that is able to start, participate, and finish therapy are brave people.

I specialize in treating individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, and trauma. Many times trauma/stress/distress result in individuals coping and managing alone and I believe the healing work begins when individuals are able to find trusted others to do the work with. I cultivate a safe environment for healing , while being compassionate, understanding, curious, and non-judgmental.

Immediate Openings Available. Healing has its greatest chance of success when paired with a strong, compassionate, and nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship. If you prefer the spaciousness of a session to allow for deeper internal exploration and understanding, then you may be my ideal client. Support is a vital aspect towards change and your therapist should be an important part of that. My approach is guided by compassion and confidence in the internal wisdom, that when fostered, facilitates the healing process. Are you ready for THIS kind of journey?

I am so glad you have made it to this step in deciding to start your own personal counseling journey! I am passionate about teaching adults and children that being in our emotions, feeling our emotions and understanding our emotions is okay and important for us to do. I also strive to help people understand that therapy is not only for the “sick” but also for the healthy. Let's work together, to make you feel better!

I work well with clients who are struggling with issues related to trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and myriad other struggles. I have considerable experience working with teens and adolescents, but I am eager to work with individuals of all ages. Clients I work with are typically looking for peace, confidence, and an overall feeling of wholeness and wellbeing.

I am here to help you build the life you are excited to live. I have experience working with adolescents and adults of all ages and genders. I have helped my clients work through problems with depression, grief, anxiety, trauma, thoughts of death and suicide, anger, as well as just dealing with the day-to-day stressors that wear us down.

I am a licensed clinical therapist and have a passion for helping others improve their quality of life. I am very thankful to have the opportunity to meet amazing people while also understanding that people experience hardships and have struggles throughout life. I believe with the support and help of a mental health professional in a safe and private environment, one can work through the difficult challenges in life to live their fullest life desired. My focus as your therapist is to provide for you a caring and nonjudgemental relationship to explore and process feelings, struggles, identify needs, and increase self-understanding.

I truly believe that the most important part of therapy is the relationship between the client and their therapist. If you are walking a difficult path, feeling stuck at a crossroads, experiencing worry, anxiety or stress - you don't have to navigate this alone. If you need an open-minded and compassionate guide, who also knows how to motivate you, that's what I do! I would be honored to be a part of your team. I work with adults who are struggling with life’s more difficult moments, including managing depression, anxiety, gender identity struggles, pregnancy and postpartum, and recovering from painful memories or trauma.

Life can become chaotic at times in which we sometimes feel we cannot reach out or find someone to connect with that streamlines our path to growth and healing. Mental health can be a challenge and I believe everyone deserves a good quality of life. I realize each person looks through their own unique lens. I take great pleasure in understanding each individual’s worldview, and together, assist them to recognize their strengths and specific needs. I want to give everyone the ability to enjoy a life of happiness they deserve.

Has your life as you've known it been shattered, leaving you feeling lonely, broken and at a loss of how to put the pieces back together? Maybe you're consumed with feelings of depression, anxiety, and self doubt, just struggling to keep up with the daily grind. Perhaps you have unresolved trauma that is interfering with your ability to enjoy life in the present. Regardless of what has brought you to this point, you are exhausted from trying to manage it on your own.

Life is full of ups and downs, uncertainties, changes and setbacks. Often times it becomes overbearing to carry the weight of it all. Nothing says that you have to face these issues alone. I primarily work with adults who are suffering from Depression, Anxiety and Grief. However, anyone who is able and willing to be an active participant in their mental health journey is welcome in this space with me. I work tiresomely to ensure each client is afforded a safe place to explore their issues and achieve their goals.

Your life has become unmanageable in some way, and you need help. I am here to listen, learn about you and your specific needs and struggles, and help guide you to better days ahead.

I help preteen, adolescent, and adult women to overcome trauma and adjustments and create a life they love. When you are on a rollercoaster of spiraling thoughts and painful emotions, you feel broken and voiceless. You may be experiencing guilt, shame, anxiety, or depression, but you don’t have to stay there. I have great compassion for the difficulties you are experiencing, and I look forward to working with you to find your inner spark and assist you in living a happy, fulfilling life.
