Teletherapy for Arkansas

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Arkansas. I enjoy working with adults, older teenagers, and couples. As a therapist, I believe the therapeutic relationship is central and that many of our struggles come from wounded relationships and difficulty with connection. I work to build a relationship of deep empathy and connection with my clients in addition to providing tools for working with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, disordered eating, body image, relationship struggles, career transitions, grief, low self esteem, "failure to launch", sexuality and gender, and interpersonal struggles.

Head and heart out of balance? Whether you are an Artist/Creative/Caregiver struggling to set boundaries and stay emotionally healthy or an Analyst/Engineer/Lawyer struggling to connect and communicate effectively, you can learn the skills to integrate the emotional and rational parts of your selves, and find the wisdom and balance you need to live a life you love. There are more tools available to help us enrich our lives now than ever in human history, so what are you waiting for? Let's get started! Ask Me About Psychedelic Therapy! BCBS and Private Pay.

Mental Health is real. I believe in the importance of creating a safe space that empower clients to cultivate a new normal. Choosing the right therapist can be difficult, yet it makes a big difference in treatment. For 5 years, I have been a counseling in mental health field treating a variety of issues. In my practice, I believe every person is unique despite their sexuality, race, gender, or economic background. I am a holistic, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist who uses an integrative approach to help my clients achieve long-term success.

I can think of no greater responsibility than keeping someone’s secrets or any greater joy than holding someone’s hand while they do the difficult work of changing their lives. I became a therapist because I believe in our ability to CHANGE. The ability to change is one of our greatest gifts and abilities, but in life sometimes we get STUCK. Stuck in bad relationships, stuck in dead-end jobs, or stuck in patterns of behavior that keep us miserable and defeated. My job and my joy is to help you get UN-stuck.

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!

I can help you get to the 'heart' of the challenges and issues you're dealing with and make the lasting changes you’re longing for. Having been in practice over 40 years, I'm a seasoned therapist and have the tools and experience to resolve whatever is 'up' for you. I've found that 'talk therapy' is often not enough to resolve many difficulties, so I use a variety of effective approaches, uniquely adjusted to match each client's needs. In addition to talk therapy, I utilize Brainspotting; EMDR; Body Centered therapy; Meditative approaches and Hypnotherapy.

Sometimes trying to feel better feels hopeless. No matter what you do or try, your anxiety just won't go away. The depression keeps hitting you like waves in the ocean, coming up over and over again. Or maybe it's one of your most important relationships. You just can't seem to figure things out with your partner. No matter what parenting technique you try, you just can't seem to get through to your teenager. I don't know exactly where you are at today, but I do know how it can be intimidating to ask for help.

Hey there, I am NaTasha :) Have you admitted that you are not okay and that you need help getting unstuck? Where you are is completely understandable, I mean, you have been through A LOT, right? When life just keeps happening and the time isn't taken to address the impact of hard things, it gets REALLY tough. You can stop pushing through now, ok? Therapy offers you a space to pause, process, and heal. Please don't wait until one more thing happens that sends you into a spiral to call me...consider this your sign to get on my schedule.

Life can be hard, difficult, overwhelming, frustrating, and sometimes unbearable. You face so many challenges and disappointments – some which can’t even be shared with close friends and family. You go on like nothing is wrong, but it doesn’t stop the thoughts or emotions from hitting you at the most random times. Wishing and hoping it will go away hasn’t really worked either. If you read that and thought this is me, Heart Matters Therapy can help. Heart Matters Therapy provides mental health services to children, teens, and adults who are dealing with issues like anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and more.

You've been in an office all day, and probably the last thing you want to do is go to another office and talk about problems. My goal is to do therapy differently when possible, whether that means going outdoors and taking a walk or meeting from the comfort of your own home via secured telehealth. Either way, you'll experience evidence-based treatment in a new way. Check out my website for more about what to expect. If you need one-on-one care, we can do that. If you're on a budget, check out my Jaunts, which incorporate hiking and groups at a lower rate.

Congratulations on making it this far on your journey in mental health and wellness. For most of us, even the thought of asking for help is a daunting task, so I commend you on taking the steps to find a therapist to assist you on your journey. As a therapist, I am equipped to assist with mental health maintenance, helping you gain insight into past situations that are affecting your life now, and facilitating better navigation of recent life changes.

I work with individuals and couples dealing with financial stress, anxiety/depression, work-life balance, feeling lost, and relationship/marital issues.

You approach life in a different way. You boldly want to change the patterns that are not working for you. Relationships are of utmost importance to you and you are willing to look at your part in the growth and resilience of these prized relationships. Sometimes you want to talk about a specific issue that just happened, other times you want to look at every aspect of yourself and see what you can do to rise to the next level. We can work together in all areas of your life: relationships, finance, spirituality, work life, home life, recreation, personal identity, growth, physical health, contribution, & emotional health

Life is hardest when we’re alone in our struggles and pain. We’re wired to bond with others and find safe connections with the ones we love. But sometimes it's hard to feel safe. And when we don't feel safe all sorts of negative emotions find their way to the surface. Anxiety, depression, sometimes even behavioral ruts like anger and shame. We just get stuck. And many times it seems like the harder we try to get out of these ruts, the more stuck we seem to get. But we all want the same things in our relationships. To be seen. To be heard. Are you there for me? Can I count on you? These are healthy goals!

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?

Many people wish they didn’t have difficult, upsetting, and distressing feelings. Wouldn’t it be nice to just feel happy and content all the time? If you (and/or your partner) are struggling to cope with your emotions (or with the emotions of others), I can help you learn to process and effectively manage your feelings so that you can better navigate the ups and downs of life. I offer teletherapy for couples and for individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma, personality pathology, and interpersonal issues. I strive to be collaborative—you are the expert in your life, and I’ll bring the psychological expertise.

Clients who are struggling but wanting to not only heal, but also grow have the potential for being extremely powerful people. We have all gone through difficult times, experiencing anxiety, fear, depression, and hopelessness. However, if we have healed, we look back and see those times as hard, but some of the most powerful in our lives. Hearts can become strong, marriages can be healed and become euphoric, and our families can become strong, powerful, and beautiful. If you have a Christian background, I can help you become stronger in your faith. If you want to become a stronger leader, I am also an executive coach.
