I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience helping adults navigate some of the harder things life brings — anxiety, PTSD, OCD, grief, bipolar disorder, maternal mental health, infertility, eating disorders, and chronic illness, among others. I work with adults of all backgrounds and I'm fully LGBTQIA+-affirming. I see all of my clients via telehealth, which means if you're anywhere in Arkansas, we can work together — no commute, no waiting room. I'm warm and I'm direct, and I don't believe in keeping you in therapy longer than you need to be.

Welcome! Fourteen years in, this still moves me. ❤️ Let's see if any of this sounds familiar: You check the locks again on your way to bed. You reread the text nine times, send it, then apologize for sending it. You sit in the car in the driveway a minute longer than you need to. You are steady in the hospital hallway and you come apart in the cereal aisle. Your kid gets called defiant by adults who have never seen him tired. You know which friends stopped calling first. You have carried this well, and you have carried it alone, and both of those cost you something. This is for you. Children, teenagers, adults, people starting over at sixty-eight.

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Fayetteville, AR

Finding LGBTQIA therapists in Fayetteville starts with identity-affirming care. Look for a therapist who clearly lists experience with LGBTQIA+ clients, gender-diverse care, coming out, family or relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some therapists may also mention affirmative therapy, World Professional Association for Transgender Health training, or experience supporting transgender, nonbinary, and queer people. These details can help you find a therapist whose training and listed specialties match what you want to address.

Fayetteville has a smaller local therapist market than many large cities, so LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may have more limited in-person availability. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Arkansas while still helping you stay connected to care that fits your schedule. As you compare therapists, review whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, how soon they can meet, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their work with LGBTQIA+ communities in their bios. Searches related to pride counseling nw often point to the same need: affirming care that feels specific, accessible, and easy to book.

Therapy in Fayetteville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can compare LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists in Fayetteville, choose someone who matches your needs and plan, and book directly when you’re ready.
