Therapists in Arkansas

Every life has seasons and circumstances where the trail changes and the journey becomes difficult. Sometimes the stones are masterfully laid and the walking is smooth, sometimes the stones serve as steps to get us to where we want to go, and sometimes the stones are such a mess that we can barely figure out the next safe step. I want to come alongside you with compassionate, knowledgeable, and encouraging support to get you to where you can experience a manageable trail to walk. The goal is to equip you with the tools and skills to navigate a satisfying, healthy, and balanced life. I look forward to helping you on your path.

Hello and Welcome, I am a Licensed Associate Counselor and Julia Spain, LPC, owner of this practice, is my Clinical Supervisor. I believe the first meeting between the client and the counselor is the beginning of what should evolve into a strong and trusting relationship. Coming into counseling for the first time, can be scary for anyone. The relationship needs to be fostered with honesty and trust, supported with both parties working hard to help the client meet the intended goals. Offering compassion, empathy, and non-judgmental atmosphere, my clients are my primary focus. I look forward to working with you..

Are you experiencing a high level of anxiety or stress? Or, are you going through a difficult period in life, such as relationship conflict or loss, a health status change, or multiple stressors piling up all at once? Trained in two helping professions, I can provide you with compassionate, knowledgeable care and actionable plans that will help you to resolve anxiety and stress and get back to enjoying life again. Whether you need to make a change, or to prevail over a change life has forced upon you, my experience and knowledge will help you to navigate difficult times and to reclaim your life.

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.

We all struggle with something. Taking the first step toward living a more meaningful, fulfilling life is a big jump for some. I know what it feels like to sit in the client's chair and how scary it can be to get started in therapy. When I was younger, I found myself burdened by debilitating anxiety, depression, and a lot of unhelpful coping mechanisms which resulted in feeling stuck, loneliness, and relational problems with family, friends, and romantic partners alike. Does this sound familiar? If so, you may be the perfect client for me. I can't wait to meet you. Call or email to request an appointment today!

Traditional talk therapy isn't a fit for everyone. If you're in search of a more balanced and fulfilling life, and have faced challenges with therapy before, my experiential, nature-based approach could be the solution.

I attended Harding University and graduated with my B.A. in Psychology and my M.S. in Counseling. I have 24 years of experience in the mental health field.

I believe that every client I treat deserves respect and has the ability to empower themselves to meet their individual life goals. I love what I do and I appreciate every client who walks through my door. I have a specialization in grief therapy and trauma.

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.
