Therapists in Rudy, AR

My goal is that folks feel hope when they leave my office. I believe that individuals, couples, and families are at times lacking the tools to get back on track after they have been derailed by life. I believe healing starts within the therapeutic relationship and I look forward to connecting with clients! My job is to help them on their journey in working toward a healthy outlook and better connections in their relationships. I enjoy working with those who are dealing with grief & loss issues, relationship struggles, adolescents who are figuring out life, & adults who need someone who cares.

Are you tired of living life only to survive? Are you ready to take the steps into living to thrive? Are you ready take control back over your life? I am an Advanced Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist trained in a variety of modalities designed to help you navigate through the healing process. Certified in EMDR therapy as one of my primary approaches, I utilize many evidence-based therapies to help you get to the life you have always wanted to live.

I want to start by saying that I truly hold a solid belief that each and every human deserves to feel happiness, love, excitement, contentment, and ultimately to achieve their dreams, desires, goals, and best-selves! I implement an integrative approach, with a craving to help. Whether that assistance be with a child struggling with ADHD, an individual learning to cope with anxiety/depression, a couple struggling, or an entire family in need, I am devoted to seeking out and destroying the obstacles, strongholds, cognitive distortions, or whatever the “problem” is that is impeding their ability to live happy, healthy, fulfilled lives.

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.

There can be healing and growth after going through really hard things in life. Trauma doesn’t have to be the end of your story. You can write a new chapter. I am passionate about coming alongside those who are adjusting to life changes and seeking personal growth, as well as helping those who are working through the effects of abuse, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and grief.

Shame is never a motivator. Many of your issues may be rooted in shame that you never even realized. Shame can take on many forms; pressure to live up to other's expectations of us, pressure to perform at the rate those around us seem to be, or pressure to live up to our own impossible standards we have created for ourselves. When these measures are not met, we can feel depleted, discouraged, and even hopeless. Or perhaps we have been verbally told by others (either past or present) they were disappointed in us or we weren't good enough. And we cannot seem to escape these defeating and destructive thoughts.

Everyone has a story. Yours is unique and valuable, and I'm here to listen. Whether you have specific goals you're working toward or just need a place to connect and sort through life, I would love to help.

Hurts and pain leave us feeling shattered, injured, and disconnected from our true selves. You may be fed up with the constant pain from your past, feeling that you will never be happy or normal. You might not even remember a time when life didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to be happy and move forward without the past haunting or hurting you. You’re ready to have and feel peace in your heart, brain, and body. Most of all, you’re ready to know you are enough and that your future can be full of happiness and joy

Recognizing life's challenges, I am committed to nurturing a supportive, inclusive atmosphere. My approach to each client is marked by empathy, understanding, and a nonjudgmental perspective, honoring the uniqueness of their personal journey. Working with children and adolescents, I tailor therapeutic techniques to meet their emotional and developmental needs, while collaborating with their families to enhance their overall wholeness and autonomy.

Do you feel like you are ready for a change, but still running in place? Stuck in a rut and ready to get loose? Do you crave connection and healthy relationships, but find that you aren't sure what needs to change to get there? If you are reading this then most likely you have hit a breaking point and are looking for assistance in mending what has broken. It would be my honor to help guide you and provide care and support as you work to become your healthiest and truest self.

Step out into freedom and embrace the life you were born to live! Is fear running your life? Do you hide the “real you” from family & friends? Discover the courage to be who you truly are! Many people dealing with anxiety, depression and gender and sexuality issues feel they are missing out on life. Clients I work with often report feeling alone and afraid to reach out for help. They no longer want to hide who they are, yet also feel stuck moving forward due to lack of support or fear of judgement. My passion is to help you ditch the shame and find freedom to love the person in the mirror despite the opinions of others.

Relationships are hard. The stresses of everyday life tend to throw curveballs that can cause conflict even in the healthiest of relationships. If you and your loved ones are in a place where it’s difficult to see a way out of the conflict, counseling is a great tool to help you become unstuck and find a path forward. Relational work is my passion and I love to see individuals connect with one another in meaningful and impactful ways. I respect and honor the worth of every individual, couple, and family unit, and I have created a safe and welcoming space for you to come just as you are.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor that specializes in play therapy to provide counseling services to children, adolescents, and their families. I am honored to work with children and to provide a safe place for them to resolve psychosocial difficulties and achieve optimal growth and development, specifically through play. My work with children involves meeting them where they are emotionally and developmentally through play therapy, while also working with their families to improve daily functioning. Play therapy gives children the capability to improve regulation skills, tolerate frustrations, and improve relationships.

At Wholistic Health, we have multiple clinicians available to accommodate your needs. Specifically, we provide EMDR therapy which is helpful when a person is feeling “stuck” on a particular emotion or traumatic memory, as well as play therapy for kids and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) or CBT for adults. DBT is focused on helping those who struggle with suicidal thoughts or feel like their emotions are in control of them.

"Over the past few years, the demand for mental health services has increased. The field of mental health, in efforts to meet this demand, has caused the technique of counseling to become commercialized. When I created Harris & Harris my mission was to create a business practice that was ethically driven to get back to the basics of counseling. Customer volume should never be a measurement of success within a business, but providing consistent quality service should always be a measurement standard."

Are you looking for a safe space to do some serious healing? Are you feeling "stuck" and need a safe place to get "unstuck"? Christina aims to create a safe space for anyone who enters. She has had experience working with teens, adults, and families through a variety of struggles. She believes that therapy is a place to process loss, and to find growth. Life can be hard, and it is Christina's goal to sit with you in a non-judgmental empathetic manner to allow you to designate what areas you would like to grow in. She believes that you have the ability to grow and get to the point where you can thrive.

Are you experiencing a loss of energy, frustration, burnout, or emotional imbalance; anger and disconnection; hopelessness, loneliness, or despair? Unresolved emotions, trauma, and/or grief can become complicated- resulting in maladaptive behaviors and thought patterns that affect all areas of your life. Transition is hard, endings are difficult, and uncertainty is scary. If it has become overwhelming, know that you are not alone. Many of us have these thoughts and feelings. These are human emotions, brought on by YOUR life’s experiences.

Being a safe place to process feelings is a vital role that we can play in each other's lives. In a world where emotions often go unacknowledged or even dismissed, offering a safe space for someone to express and explore their feelings can be a transformative experience. It requires genuine empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental attitude. Creating an environment where individuals feel comfortable sharing their innermost thoughts and emotions can cultivate healing, growth, and resilience. Kailee’s goal is to cultivate this space of safety, nonjudgement, growth, healing, self-acceptance, and above all, hope.
