Therapists in Paragould, AR

It is amazing how our hearts can be beating in our chests and yet we do not feel fully alive. Life, circumstances, relationships, and even our own hearts can seem to work against us in our quest to have meaningful and fulfilling lives. As a trained professional counselor practicing in Arkansas, Arizona, and Missouri, I have been equipped to work with individuals, couples, and families and I have a passion for seeing people live well and find their purpose. I hold a Specialist degree in Psychology and Counseling and a Doctorate in Psychology and Christian Counseling, utilizing professional theories with a faith-based foundation.

Do life's circumstances feel out of your control? You CAN learn to navigate yourself through those circumstances with SUCCESS! Lifechange is a journey that begins with one step. Counseling is a great way to put that first foot forward. CivilPsych Services can help you get started putting one foot in front of the other toward a happier future.

The primary guiding principle in my approach to therapy is empathy. I am convinced that "feeling with" people is a key to healing. When people feel listened to and truly understood, an atmosphere of mutual respect is created. It has been my experience that people do not feel valued unless they know that someone is genuinely interested in understanding their pain.

Somewhere, deep down, you already have the ability to heal yourself and grow; let me help you find it and keep it. I am committed to helping you create a life where you can stop surviving and start thriving. My mission is to provide individuals with a safe, respectful and non-judgmental environment where they can feel comfortable exploring a preferred way of life. I use a relational approach to treatment and integrate Somatic Experiencing® techniques as well as Brainspotting into my client's care. Let me help you discover your strengths and resources so that you can be empowered to live a more fulfilling life.

Wearing a fake smile and pretending everything is okay has become too much. How did it get to this point where life is so heavy and pointless? It just gradually happened, a little at a time. That one day at at time thing can work backwards too. Life can just get a little more impossible one day at a time also. The idea of reaching out to someone for help also seems impossibly heavy and difficult. But really it's not, it's just a call and the journey begins. A sense of hope can actually begin to be part of your emotional landscape. Our therapy can be the turning point where life begins to be lighter.

Hello my name is Derek Spiegel and I have been practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor [LPC] in the field for over 20 years. Life is full of endless possibilities for each one of us. Coupled with the possibilities there are "things" that happen in our journey that we are not ready for. My Great Grandmother Rosie was one of the most influential people in my life. When she passed I didn't want to face the sadness. However I found restoration and healing in the storm of my life. Let me help you find shelter from the storms of your life.
