Therapists in Arkansas
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.

As we move through life we tell ourselves stories. Stories about who we are and who we think we “should” be; where we come from and where we want to go. Stories about our relationships and our place in this world. As a therapist, my goal is to help you tell your story, to look at it from different perspectives, and change it as you see fit. I take a systems-based approach, acknowledging the importance of how you are impacted by the familial, societal, economic, and political systems your story takes place in. Our mental health does not exist in a vacuum, and how these systems interact play an important role.

Understanding yourself, your personality structure, and the world around you is a great asset. It allows you to clearly articulate your values and to set a life-course oriented toward what brings you meaning and fulfillment. Often, clinical symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and personality difficulties can obscure a clear vision of our ideal path. Clinical psychology uses the scientific understanding of behavior and mental health difficulties as the basis for strategic guidance in helping you overcome clinical and life issues.

When I consider the relationship between a therapist and a client, I want to offer a supportive and nonjudgmental setting to allow a client to address their personal challenges by exploring their thoughts and emotions at their own pace. While gradually exploring additional layers of their concerns to allow them to find a path to a more authentic and satisfying life. I want to provide empathy for clients while empowering them in ways to grow and achieve their goals. I want those seeking comfort and support with their concerns, such as difficulties within their relationships, life stresses, past hurts, depression, anxiety & grief.

My aim is to not just make hope attainable, but a lived experience for those I encounter. I'm all too familiar with the crossroads between recovering from life's mishaps and putting up walls to make sure you're not hurt like that again. I've found that we often forget failure and fortune are regular occurrences in life, and we sometimes underestimate our ability to not just recover, but to live a fulfilling life even with scars. Denying/ignoring the impact of pain is not the answer. Neither is making hopelessness your home. At Vine + Root Counseling, I work with clients to help retrace your hurts to the root cause.

Does something have you feeling stuck? Maybe you know exactly what it is: your mind won't stop replaying the worst case scenario, or you’re navigating a life change, or self-doubt is preventing you from taking next steps. Perhaps it's a sense that something just isn't right and you're left feeling stressed, depressed, and out-of-sync. You know life doesn't have to feel this way, and you've tried to make changes on your own, but you're realizing you could use some more support.
