Couples Counseling Therapists in Arkansas

I am an advocate of preventative mental health and reducing the stigma attached to mental illness and emotional problems. I believe that psychological disorders, difficulty coping and healing from life changes, grief, and stress should be handled with dignity and respect with as much knowledge and care as physical illnesses. There should be no shame or embarrassment attached to healing oneself and being the person you are created to be.

Bio video on my website...When you pay for therapy, you're expecting something of tangible value. All too often what you get instead is a nice person on a couch and little else. That’s not me. With high energy and humor, I help people recover from sexual addiction; I help couples lost in conflict and hopelessness; and I help parents with teens and young adults. I work with sexual abuse, attachment wounds, and traumas/PTSD of all kinds. I am a Christian, and I approach therapy from a clinical perspective. We can integrate your faith as much as you feel comfortable, or not at all.

Feeling overwhelmed and not sure where to turn? You may feel lost, inadequate, or powerless. If so, you are not alone. The pressures of life can seem considerably overpowering at times. However, even the most stressful situations can be defeated. Let’s work together to gain control over the stress.

Are you hanging on by a thread? I love helping people reach their goals as parents, spouses, or individuals. You can have you ideal life. I work with adults and teens experiencing depression, anxiety, or lack of direction in life; parents seeking relationships that work with their children; couples wanting to repair and grow their relationship; and help managing anger or resolving trauma. I have a knack for motivating young people to their purpose and developing action steps to move forward. I am also a certified Technology Assisted/Distance Based Counselor. We can work together over video chat, phone call or text based sessions.

I’m a Professional Counselor helping the “sandwich” generation of adult children navigate the challenges of aging parents so that they foster resilience and enhance quality of life for both generations. I help clients navigate a broken system for the aging population, learn how to honor parents with dignity, and protect adult children's own well-being along the way. The ins-and-outs of aging parents and their desires are unique to each situation and family, but having an ally to walk alongside you to help your family to stay intact and healthy through it all is priceless. It is possible to get to the end of it and have no regret.

I offer a caring, safe and motivating environment where individuals can be heard and understood. I have 25 years of experience in the mental health field. I like to start where my clients are when they begin treatment, and I understand that one type of treatment approach does not work for everyone. I utilize several evidenced based therapies. Overall, I seek to assist clients in developing skills they desire to live happier more productive and fulfilling lives.

I am dedicated to helping individuals who are living with anxiety, stress, depression, loss, trauma, mood disorders, relationship and family issues, life transitions, difficulties understanding and controlling emotions, and other challenges. Clients I serve often require guidance in navigating life's numerous obstacles, as well as coping techniques, support, connection, empathy, accountability, authenticity, and personalized care. I serve those who want to expand their awareness of themselves and their emotions, to become their true selves and one with their emotions - living a more harmonious and authentic lifestyle.

Are you, your child, or your family struggling with anxiety, depression, stress management, or trauma? I have a passion for working with individuals (children and adults), families, and couples. My job is to assist you in helping you look at things differently. Focusing on a shift in perspective allows for needed changes in feelings, thoughts, and behaviors to fall into place. I have been a practicing therapist for 10 years. My aim is to assist individuals, families, and/or couples in creating a better quality of life. So, if a better quality of life is what you are seeking, I want to walk with you on that journey.

If you have ever thought your day was overwhelming, or your plans just seem to fall apart or you struggle to maintain positivity, then you have come to the right place. Are you overwhelmed with life changes-kids, job, marriage, other relationships? Have you lost connection with your spouse? Do you struggle with perfectionism?

As a licensed therapist with training in EMDR therapy, I devote my time to working with clients to overcome past trauma. I hold a Master's and PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling as well as a 500hr Advanced Yoga Teacher Certification. I have also pursued further training in Perinatal Maternal Mental Health as well as Gottman Method for couples. My work with clients is informed by these various trainings as well as my own meditation and movement practices.

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.

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.
