Grief counselors and therapists in Fayetteville, AR

I’ve witnessed the power of therapy to bring healing and growth across many settings and life circumstances. Seeing lives change through this work continually reminds me what a privilege it is to step into someone’s story and walk alongside them toward greater understanding, peace, and resilience.

I’m a seasoned therapist, minister, and educator who supports clients navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, and challenges with anger or emotional regulation. I believe therapy is a space for honest self-exploration, healing, and meaningful personal growth. My goal is to meet you with compassion and curiosity while creating a safe, supportive environment where you can better understand yourself, work through painful experiences, and move toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I’m Jason, a bilingual Spanish/English therapist who loves helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. I take an active, authentic approach—clients often describe me as warm, relatable, and safe, yet willing to challenge you in ways that foster real insight and growth.

Hi, I’m Deborah M. Rago, LCSW. I hold master’s degrees in both Social Work and Human Services, and I’ve spent more than three decades supporting clients across Arkansas in inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. My experience includes working with grief and loss, personality disorders, addictions, professional stress, and trauma.

If you’re facing a difficult season or feeling overwhelmed by what you’re carrying, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to offer compassionate, experienced support as you work toward greater understanding and meaningful change.

Hello and welcome! Seeking therapy takes a lot of courage and finding the right therapist is an important part of that process. I have experience working with adults facing a variety of challenges including depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, severe mental illness, and problems with motivation and self-esteem.

I believe we’re all doing the best we can, and that belief guides my work as a therapist. I care deeply about people and feel honored to be someone you can bring the hard things to. I’m down-to-earth, professional, and shaped by a diverse background that led me to counseling as my life’s work.

Welcome. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am here to step into the emotional trenches of life with you. My goal is to lean in and help you uncover your strengths, identify your needs, and grow in your relationships. I have experience in both school and private practice settings and specialize in attachment, parenting struggles, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and relationship concerns. I believe hard seasons are easier to navigate when you have steady, compassionate support.

You shouldn't have to leave parts of yourself at the door to feel understood, especially in therapy. I'm Kaylia, and I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Arkansas–Fort Smith and my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from John Brown University. I love working with teens and adults as they build confidence, connection, and emotional insight. I support clients navigating ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, stress, relationship issues, women’s issues, caregiver fatigue, bipolar disorder, panic disorders, infertility, maternal mental health concerns, and challenges connected to church leadership roles. My goal is to meet you with warmth, curiosity, and compassion wherever you are in your journey.

Kayla, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in community mental health, recognized the profound disparities in access to mental health care within BIPOC communities. Inspired by a vision of creating a space where healing is both inclusive and affordable, she founded Helen’s Project with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of their background or financial situation.​​Helen’s Project operates on the principle that culturally competent and empathetic mental health care is essential for holistic well-being. The organization collaborates with a diverse team of mental health professionals who not only possess clinical expertise but also understand the unique cultural nuances and challenges faced by the BIPOC community.

Hello, and welcome. With over 15 years in the counseling field, I continue to feel deeply called to this work and honored to support people through life's challenges. Many of the clients I work with are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, PTSD, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship and family issues, and emotional overwhelm. I also sit with people in seasons that are hard to talk about anywhere else — living with chronic illness or other physical health issues, walking through infertility, caring for someone at the end of life, or asking real questions about identity when everything familiar has shifted. I see both male and female clients across adulthood, and men's issues and women's issues are equally welcome here. Sometimes people come to therapy feeling stuck, discouraged, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to be a steady source of support where you feel heard, respected, and encouraged as you work through what is weighing on you and begin moving toward healing and growth.

I work to get to know my client's, to understand where they are coming from, and to provide feedback with a goal to promote healing and positive change. I draw on my 37 years of work in this counseling, and multiple levels of education.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and my main focus is helping minors and adults address problematic sexual behaviors, men’s issues, and the unique experiences of those who identify as LGBTQ+.

I also work with couples who are navigating the challenges of polyamory and exploring healthy relationship dynamics.

I offer a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive space for clients to explore challenges related to substance use, codependency, anxiety, depression, and trauma.
